Yeah, but you haven't described the why. And that's because dma_cookie_status()
currently considers just DMA_COMPLETE and DMA_IN_PROGRESS for the status of the
cookie, so the controller drivers are forced to query the DMA_PAUSED state
themselves.

Also, I noticed that Vinod prefers that you use the full paragraph in the commit
message, and not a continuation of the patch title, so you may want to reword
the commit message.

there's a helper function that you can use instead: atc_chan_is_paused()

return dma_status please

The status may change after spin_unlock_irqrestore(). Should the residue
be in sync with the dma status? If yes, you should check the status while
holding the lock.
