[PATCH repost 1/4] dmaengine/dw_dmac: don't scan descriptors if no xfers in progress

[Jamie Iles]

Some hardware (picoChip picoXCell in particular) sometimes has
the block transfer complete bit being set for a channel after the
whole transfer has completed. If we don't have any transfers in the
active list then don't bother to scan the descriptors. This often
happens in normal operation and doesn't require the channel to be
reset.

v2: cleanup whitespace
