[PATCH 6/9] dma: edma: Detect null slot errors and handle them correctly

From: Joel Fernandes
Date: Mon Jul 29 2013 - 09:31:56 EST


For crypto IP, we continue to receive events even continuously in
NULL slot, and request lines don't get de-asserted unlike omap_hsmmc.
Due to this, we continously receive error interrupts when we
manually trigger an event.

We fix this, by first detecting if the Channel is currently transferring
from a NULL slot or not, that's where the edma_read_slot in the error
callback from interrupt handler comes in.

Second thing we do is, if we detect if we are on a NULL slot, we don't
forcefully trigger as this will only result in more error conditions.
Instead we set a missed flag and allow the manual triggerring to happen
in edma_execute which will eventually be called. This fixes the issue
where we are on a NULL slot and continue to receive events from
modules like crypto that don't stop their request events after a
transfer is completed.
