The commit dbde5c29 "dw_dmac: use devm_* functions to simplify code" turns probe function to use devm_* helpers and simultaneously brings a regression. We need to ensure irq is disabled, followed by ensuring that don't schedule any more tasklets and then its safe to use tasklet_kill(). The free_irq() will ensure that the irq is disabled and also wait till all scheduled interrupts are executed by invoking synchronize_irq(). So we need to only do tasklet_kill() after invoking free_irq().
