dmaengine: at_hdmac: fix residue computation

As claimed by the programmer datasheet and confirmed by the IP designer,
the Block Transfer Size (BTSIZE) bitfield of the Channel x Control A
Register (CTRLAx) always refers to a number of Source Width (SRC_WIDTH)
transfers.

Both the SRC_WIDTH and BTSIZE bitfields can be extacted from the CTRLAx
register to compute the DMA residue. So the 'tx_width' field is useless
and can be removed from the struct at_desc.

Before this patch, atc_prep_slave_sg() was not consistent: BTSIZE was
correctly initialized according to the SRC_WIDTH but 'tx_width' was always
set to reg_width, which was incorrect for MEM_TO_DEV transfers. It led to
bad DMA residue when 'tx_width' != SRC_WIDTH.

Also the 'tx_width' field was mostly set only in the first and last
descriptors. Depending on the kind of DMA transfer, this field remained
uninitialized for intermediate descriptors. The accurate DMA residue was
computed only when the currently processed descriptor was the first or the
last of the chain. This algorithm was a little bit odd. An accurate DMA
residue can always be computed using the SRC_WIDTH and BTSIZE bitfields
in the CTRLAx register.

Finally, the test to check whether the currently processed descriptor is
the last of the chain was wrong: for cyclic transfer, last_desc->lli.dscr
is NOT equal to zero, since set_desc_eol() is never called, but logically
equal to first_desc->txd.phys. This bug has a side effect on the
drivers/tty/serial/atmel_serial.c driver, which uses cyclic DMA transfer
to receive data. Since the DMA residue was wrong each time the DMA
transfer reaches the second (and last) period of the transfer, no more
data were received by the USART driver till the cyclic DMA transfer loops
back to the first period.

* The CTRLA register provides us with the amount of data
* already read from the source for the current child
* descriptor. So we can compute a more accurate residue by also
* removing the number of bytes corresponding to this amount of
* data.
*
* However, the DSCR and CTRLA registers cannot be read both
* atomically. Hence a race condition may occur: the first read
* register may refer to one child descriptor whereas the second
* read may refer to a later child descriptor in the list
* because of the DMA transfer progression inbetween the two
* reads.
*
* One solution could have been to pause the DMA transfer, read
* the DSCR and CTRLA then resume the DMA transfer. Nonetheless,
* this approach presents some drawbacks:
* - If the DMA transfer is paused, RX overruns or TX underruns
* are more likey to occur depending on the system latency.
* Taking the USART driver as an example, it uses a cyclic DMA
* transfer to read data from the Receive Holding Register
* (RHR) to avoid RX overruns since the RHR is not protected
* by any FIFO on most Atmel SoCs. So pausing the DMA transfer
* to compute the residue would break the USART driver design.
* - The atc_pause() function masks interrupts but we'd rather
* avoid to do so for system latency purpose.
*
* Then we'd rather use another solution: the DSCR is read a
* first time, the CTRLA is read in turn, next the DSCR is read
* a second time. If the two consecutive read values of the DSCR
* are the same then we assume both refers to the very same
* child descriptor as well as the CTRLA value read inbetween
* does. For cyclic tranfers, the assumption is that a full loop
* is "not so fast".
* If the two DSCR values are different, we read again the CTRLA
* then the DSCR till two consecutive read values from DSCR are
* equal or till the maxium trials is reach.
* This algorithm is very unlikely not to find a stable value for
* DSCR.
