Does tegra_dma_dequeue_req stops the ongoing DMA transaction as well?
If I read the code right, you have two DMA requests placed at every
given time (one is currently running, the other is waiting).
What happens if the dma_req[0] was running, and you dequeue it? Will the
DMA engine moves to process the dma_req[1], which will be stopped a
moment later?
