[PATCH 5/8] dmaengine: mv_xor: bug fix for racing condition in descriptors cleanup

From: Maxime Ripard
Date: Tue May 12 2015 - 11:42:06 EST


From: Lior Amsalem <alior@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch fixes a bug in the XOR driver where the cleanup function can be
called and free descriptors that never been processed by the engine (which
result in data errors).

The cleanup function will free descriptors based on the ownership bit in
the descriptors.
