I haven't see the original patch, but the proper solution to this problem should be to add a check to snd_dmaengine_pcm_close() to see if the DMA is still running.
Ok, since this will never happen, I suppose the problem is rather that the DMA callback is called after dma_terminate_all() has been called. Which sounds like it is a bug in the dmaengine driver. And this will likely also be a problem for other users of that dmaengine driver and not only the ASoC driver, so it should be fixed in the dmaengine driver.
Just to clarify what is it makes you say that this will never happen?
At least that is my understanding of snd_pcm_release_substream(), that it will first make sure that the stream is stopped, by calling snd_pcm_drop(), before closing the stream.
Yes you need to call dmaengine_terminate_all(). But even then we might have trasaction in flight or some dma controllers cant abort immediately (need to wait till FIFOs are flushed etc). In general it is a good practice to call dma_sync_wait() before you tear down the client. If you still see an issue, then it a buggy driver :)
