[PATCH 4/4] dmaengine: xilinx_dma: Add device synchronisation callback

[Adrian Larumbe]

This was required as an answer to a very unusual race condition, whereby a
thread waiting on a completion signaled in a callback triggered by
dmaengine_desc_callback_invoke might immediately attempt to release the
DMA channel whilst the channel lock was still free. This would cause the
remaining descriptors to be deallocated, and xilinx_dma_chan_desc_cleanup
to perform an invalid memory access when attempting to traverse the rest
of the channel's done_list.

Now, when releasing a DMA channel, it will wait until the tasklet has
finished.
