[PATCH] dmaengine: sun6i: Fix potential deadlock on &sdev->lock

[Chengfeng Ye]

As &sdev->lock is acquired by tasklet sun6i_dma_tasklet() executed under
softirq context, other acquisition of the same lock under process context
should disable irq, otherwise deadlock could happen if the soft irq preempt
the execution while the lock is held in process context on the same CPU.

sun6i_dma_terminate_all() and sun6i_dma_pause() callbacks acquire the same
lock without disabling irq inside the function.

Possible deadlock scenario:
sun6i_dma_pause()
    -> spin_lock(&sdev->lock);
        <tasklet softirq interruption>
        -> sun6i_dma_tasklet()
        -> spin_lock_irq(&sdev->lock) (deadlock here)

This flaw was found by an experimental static analysis tool I am developing
for irq-related deadlock.

The tentative patch fixes the potential deadlock by spin_lock_bh() to
disable softirq.
