Is it better if I remove the below part from tegra_dma_stop_client() so
that dma_desc is not accessed at all?

+	wcount = tdc_read(tdc, TEGRA_GPCDMA_CHAN_XFER_COUNT);
+	tdc->dma_desc->bytes_transferred +=
+			tdc->dma_desc->bytes_requested - (wcount * 4);

Because I don't see a point in updating the value there. dma_desc is set
to NULL in the next step in terminate_all() anyway.

Thanks,
Akhil
