This patch fixes an issue that unexpected retransfering happens if TCR is set to 0 before rcar_dmac_sync_tcr() writes DE bit to the CHCR register. For example, sh-sci driver can reproduce this issue like below: In rx_timer_fn(): /* CHCR DE bit may be set to 1 */ dmaengine_tx_status() rcar_dmac_tx_status() rcar_dmac_chan_get_residue() rcar_dmac_sync_tcr() /* TCR is possible to be set to 0 */ According to the description of commit 73a47bd0da66 ("dmaengine: rcar-dmac: use TCRB instead of TCR for residue"), "this buffered data will be transferred if CHCR::DE bit was cleared". So, this patch doesn't need to check TCRB register.
