The tasklet that handles the completed dma transfers uses spin_unlock for unlocking a spin lock that was previously locked with spin_lock_irqsave. This caused the following lockdep warning about an inconsistent lock state: inconsistent {HARDIRQ-ON-W} -> {IN-HARDIRQ-W} usage. We must use spin_lock_irqsave, because it is possible to queue DMA transfers from an irq handler. Replace the spin_unlock and spin_lock by spin_unlock_irqrestore and spin_lock_irqsave.
