This is now incurring a mmio read for every cleanup which somewhat defeats
the point of posting the completion status to memory.  Should be able to
get away with just writel(IOAT_CHANERR_HANDLE_MASK) iff cleanup found came
across an error-writeback.

 Does this also mean we need to re-write dmacount?  I.e. are writes to
dmacount ignored while chanerr is non-zero?
