[ Upstream commit b28de385b71abf31ce68ec0387638bee26ae9024 ]

After writing a garbage to the channel we get an Oops in dmatest_chan_set()
due to access to last entry in the empty list.

[ 212.670672] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffff000000020
[ 212.677562] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
[ 212.682702] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
...
[ 212.710074] RIP: 0010:dmatest_chan_set+0x149/0x2d0 [dmatest]
[ 212.715739] Code: e8 cc f9 ff ff 48 8b 1d 0d 55 00 00 48 83 7b 10 00 0f 84 63 01 00 00 48 c7 c7 d0 65 4d c0 e8 ee 4a f5 e1 48 89 c6 48 8b 43 10 <48> 8b 40 20 48 8b 78 58 48 85 ff 0f 84 f5 00 00 00 e8 b1 41 f5 e1

Fix this by checking list for emptiness before accessing its last entry.
