Add channel idle state to ensure that dma descriptor is not submitted when VDMA engine is in progress.any reason why you want to make your own varible and not use the HW to query as done earlier. It is not clear to me why that is removed from descriptionWe need to poll for a bit in the status register to know the dma state. We are currently doing that in the driver hot path To avoid this using own variables.
It would be worthwhile to document these, down the line people may not remeber the motivation -- ~Vinod
