dmaengine: mmp_pdma: Fix race condition in mmp_pdma_residue()

[ Upstream commit a143545855 ]

Add proper locking in mmp_pdma_residue() to prevent use-after-free when
accessing descriptor list and descriptor contents.

The race occurs when multiple threads call tx_status() while the tasklet
on another CPU is freeing completed descriptors:

CPU 0                              CPU 1
-----                              -----
mmp_pdma_tx_status()
mmp_pdma_residue()
  -> NO LOCK held
     list_for_each_entry(sw, ..)
                                   DMA interrupt
                                   dma_do_tasklet()
                                     -> spin_lock(&desc_lock)
                                        list_move(sw->node, ...)
                                        spin_unlock(&desc_lock)
  |                                     dma_pool_free(sw) <- FREED!
  -> access sw->desc <- UAF!

This issue can be reproduced when running dmatest on the same channel with
multiple threads (threads_per_chan > 1).

Fix by protecting the chain_running list iteration and descriptor access
with the chan->desc_lock spinlock.
