[PATCH v2] dmaengine: xilinx: xdma: Fix data synchronisation in xdma_channel_isr()

[Markus Elfring]

> Requests the vchan lock before using xdma->stop_request.

Better wording alternative?:
  A data synchronisation construct was missing in this function implementation.
  Thus apply the vchan lock before checking the data structure
  member “xchan->stop_requested”.

How do think about to avoid a duplicate marker line?

Under which circumstances will development interests grow for the usage of
a statement like “guard(raw_spinlock)(&xchan->vchan.lock);”?
