[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.15 3/9] Avoid hw_desc array overrun in dw-axi-dmac
From: Sasha Levin

[ Upstream commit 333e11bf47fa8d477db90e2900b1ed3c9ae9b697 ]
I have a use case where nr_buffers = 3 and in which each descriptor is composed by 3
segments, resulting in the DMA channel descs_allocated to be 9. Since axi_desc_put()
handles the hw_desc considering the descs_allocated, this scenario would result in a
kernel panic (hw_desc array will be overrun).
To fix this, the proposal is to add a new member to the axi_dma_desc structure,
where we keep the number of allocated hw_descs (axi_desc_alloc()) and use it in
axi_desc_put() to handle the hw_desc array correctly.
Additionally I propose to remove the axi_chan_start_first_queued() call after completing
the transfer, since it was identified that unbalance can occur (started descriptors can
be interrupted and transfer ignored due to DMA channel not being enabled).
