    dmaengine: edma: Make reading the position of active channels work

    As Joel pointed out, edma_read_position() uses memcpy_fromio() to read
    the parameter ram. That's not synchronized with the internal update as
    it does a byte by byte copy. We need to do a 32bit read to get a
    consistent value.

    Further reading destination and source is pointless. In DEV_TO_MEM
    transfers we are only interested in the destination, in MEM_TO_DEV we
    care about the source. In MEM_TO_MEM it really does not matter which
    one you read.

    Simple solution: Remove the pointers, select dest/source via a bool
    and return the read value.

    Remove the export of this function while at it. The only potential
    user is the dmaengine and that's always builtin.

You s-o-b missing in this one, also ack from Sekhar missing. Do you want to redo
this or prefer me to cherry-pick patches adding acks and your s-o-b, since I
already fetched your branch

Either way is fine with me...
If its Ok with you, it would great if you could add my Ack and Sob.
Thanks a lot. Let me know if you'd want me to do anything else here.
Done, The changes are getting pushed, pls do verify
Sorry for the late reply as I'm at a conference.

Thanks, I verified and it looks OK.

Regards,
