No, as stated, the line numbers in the kernel message are somewhat off
due to added debugging code. What kicks in here is this one:
if (!c->td_desc_seen) {
desc_phys = cppi41_pop_desc(cdd, c->q_comp_num);
if (desc_phys) {
__iormb();
WARN_ON(c->desc_phys != desc_phys);
c->td_desc_seen = 1;
}
}

However, I see nothing that forbids you from calling
dmaengine_terminate_all() on idle channels. If that's not handled
properly by the cppi driver, I'd say it needs fixing.

No, my debugging showed that the channel has actually been prepared and
submitted before. It's just being torn down shortly after that. That's
what makes be believe in a race condition here.

Timing, I presume.

Ok, that sounds good.
Thanks,
