fsldma: major cleanups and fixes

Fix locking. Use two queues in the driver, one for pending transacions, and
one for transactions which are actually running on the hardware. Call
dma_run_dependencies() on descriptor cleanup so that the async_tx API works
correctly.

There are a number of places throughout the code where lists of descriptors
are freed in a loop. Create functions to handle this, and use them instead
of open-coding the loop each time.
