John Stultz be5fa7e252 dmaengine: k3dma: Avoid null pointer traversal
[ Upstream commit 2f42e05b94 ]

In some cases we seem to submit two transactions in a row, which
causes us to lose track of the first. If we then cancel the
request, we may still get an interrupt, which traverses a null
ds_run value.

So try to avoid starting a new transaction if the ds_run value
is set.

While this patch avoids the null pointer crash, I've had some
reports of the k3dma driver still getting confused, which
suggests the ds_run/ds_done value handling still isn't quite
right. However, I've not run into an issue recently with it
so I think this patch is worth pushing upstream to avoid the
crash.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
