Illegal memory will be touch if SDMA_SCRIPT_ADDRS_ARRAY_SIZE_V3

thus cause memory corrupt such as slob block header so that kernel
trap into while() loop forever in slob_free(). Please refer to below
code piece in imx-sdma.c:
for (i = 0; i < sdma->script_number; i++)
	if (addr_arr[i] > 0)
		saddr_arr[i] = addr_arr[i]; /* memory corrupt here */
That issue was brought by commit a572460be9cf ("dmaengine: imx-sdma: Add
support for version 3 firmware") because SDMA_SCRIPT_ADDRS_ARRAY_SIZE_V3
(38->41 3 scripts added) not align with script number added in
sdma_script_start_addrs(2 scripts).
Applied, thanks
