net: ipa: introduce __gsi_channel_start()
Create a new function that does most of the work of starting a channel. What's different is that it takes a flag indicating whether the channel should really be started or not. Create another new function __gsi_channel_stop() that behaves similarly. IPA v3.5.1 implements suspend using a special SUSPEND endpoint setting. If the endpoint is suspended when an I/O completes on the underlying GSI channel, a SUSPEND interrupt is generated. Newer versions of IPA do not implement the SUSPEND endpoint mode. Instead, endpoint suspend is implemented by simply stopping the underlying GSI channel. In this case, a completing I/O on a *stopped* channel causes the SUSPEND interrupt condition. These new functions put all activity related to starting or stopping a channel (including "thawing/freezing" the channel) in one place, whether or not the channel is actually started or stopped.
