Subject: dmaengine: dw: don't perform DMA when dmaengine_submit is called

From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit dd8ecfcac66b4485416b2d1df0ec4798b198d7d6 upstream.

Accordingly to discussion [1] and followed up documentation the DMA controller
driver shouldn't start any DMA operations when dmaengine_submit() is called.

This patch fixes the workflow in dw_dmac driver to follow the documentation.
