My only issue with the vchan_dma_desc_free_list() is that it prints with
dev_dbg() for each descriptor it is freeing up.
The 'stuck' descriptor happens quite frequently if you start/stop audio
for example.

This is why I proposed a local

list_for_each_entry_safe(vd, _vd, &head, node) {
	list_del(&vd->node);
	vchan_vdesc_fini(vd);
}

On the other hand what vchan_dma_desc_free_list() is doing is exactly
the same thing as this loop is doing with the addition of the debug print.

I'm not sure how useful that debug print is, not sure if anyone would
miss if it is gone?

If not, than see my comment on patch 2.
