Here we are checking current dma status. 
If DMA enable status bit is set to zero , it will exit the while loop.
It will continue rest of the registers programming to disable PDM
decoder and flushing fifo.

When  this condition "if ((pdm_dma_enable & 0x02) == 0x00)" is true,
"timeout" counter won't be exhausted i.e it won't cross ACP_COUNTER
value.

We have to return time out error only when DMA enable status bit is 
not cleared and timeout reached max value i.e ACP_COUNTER. i.e 
This check " if (timeout == ACP_COUNTER) " required to know the while 
loop exit condition.

I believe it's only a single register check, still its hold to be good.
