[PATCH v4 10/24] dmaengine: dw-edma: Prepare LL kicks for event serialization

Message-ID <[email protected]>
Both eDMA and HDMA perform the same remote LL read-back immediately
before writing the doorbell register.

A later patch serializes each raw doorbell write against IRQ event
capture. Keeping the read-back in the provider callback would hold
event_lock across a remote read. Move the common read-back into the
high-level dw_edma_core_ch_doorbell(), where it can run before the
serialized section. Name the provider write wrapper
dw_edma_core_do_ch_doorbell() to distinguish the raw write, and leave
dw_edma_core_ch_maybe_doorbell() to decide whether a kick is needed.

No functional change.

Changes in v4:
  - Make dw_edma_core_ch_doorbell() the high-level operation and rename the
    provider write wrapper to dw_edma_core_do_ch_doorbell(). (Frank)
