tasklet_kill never alter the current state, just wait for the tasklet running over.
But here 'vchan_synchronize()' maybe better than 'tasklet_kill' directly.
For the v1 Issue, I investigate it today and found that caused by uart driver call flush_buffer before
TX start and then terminate dma channel directly which is not setup dma channel yet. But in v1,
dma channel terminated in worker instead, thus, when tx dma finish setup transfer and waiting
for the dma done interrupt, the worker scheduled and set 'sdmac->desc=NULL', which cause
dma channel stopped forever once the dma done interrupt coming. Only one line code as below
could fix your V1 issue:
