dmaengine: xilinx_dma: Fix read-after-free bug when terminating transfers
When user calls dmaengine_terminate_sync, the driver will clean up any remaining descriptors for all the pending or active transfers that had previously been submitted. However, this might happen whilst the tasklet is invoking the DMA callback for the last finished transfer, so by the time it returns and takes over the channel's spinlock, the list of completed descriptors it was traversing is no longer valid. This leads to a read-after-free situation. Fix it by signalling whether a user-triggered termination has happened by means of a boolean variable.
