The status check is a software check, while the residue check reads hardware 
registers. The hardware might have complete the transfer but the interrupt 
handler might not have had a chance to run yet.

Is it valid from a DMA engine API point of view to return a DMA_IN_PROGRESS 
status with a 0 residue ?
