dmaengine: pl330: fix descriptor allocation fail If two concurrent threads call pl330_get_desc() when DMAC descriptor pool is empty it is possible that allocation for one of threads will fail with message: kernel: dma-pl330 20078000.dma-controller: pl330_get_desc:2469 ALERT! Here how that can happen. Thread A calls pl330_get_desc() to get descriptor. If DMAC descriptor pool is empty pl330_get_desc() allocates new descriptor on shared pool using add_desc() and then get newly allocated descriptor using pluck_desc(). At the same time thread B calls pluck_desc() and take newly allocated descriptor. In that case descriptor allocation for thread A will fail. Using on-stack pool for new descriptor allow avoid the issue described. The patch modify pl330_get_desc() to use on-stack pool for allocation new descriptors.
