When DMA client start transmit, will be call function dma_async_issue_pending(), the dma_async_issue_pending() call the hook pointer device_issue_pending. The function fsl_qdma_issue_pending() is used to fill the device_issue_pending field. The function fsl_qdma_issue_pending() call the function fsl_qdma_enqueue_desc(). The function fsl_qdma_enqueue_desc() includes 3 steps. 1. peek at the next descriptor to be processed. 2. if next descriptor exist, then insert to linked list(used to get it when this descriptor transfer complete). 3. if next descriptor exist, then writing to qdma. In above steps, we will use struct fsl_qdma_chan and struct fsl_qdma_queue, so we need two locks to protected it.
