ARM: 7136/1: pl330: Fix a race condition

If two requests have been submitted and one of them is running, if you
call pl330_chan_ctrl(ch_id, PL330_OP_START), there's a window of time
between the spin_lock_irqsave() and the _state() check in which the
running transaction may finish.  In that case, we don't receive the
interrupt (because they are disabled), but _start() sees that the DMA
is stopped, so it starts it.  The problem is that it sends the
transaction that has just finished again, because pl330_update()
hasn't mark it as done yet.

This patch fixes this race condition by not calling _start() if the
DMA is already executing transactions.  When interrupts are reenabled,
pl330_update() will call _start().
