[PATCH v3] dmaengine: tegra-apb: Support per-burst residue granularity

Tegra's APB DMA engine updates words counter after each transferred burst
of data, hence it can report transfer's residual with more fidelity which
may be required in cases like audio playback. In particular this fixes
audio stuttering during playback in a chromium web browser. The patch is
based on the original work that was made by Ben Dooks and a patch from
downstream kernel. It was tested on Tegra20 and Tegra30 devices.

Changelog:

v3: Added workaround for a hardware design shortcoming that results
in a words counter wraparound before end-of-transfer bit is set
in a cyclic mode.

v2: Addressed review comments made by Jon Hunter to v1. We won't try
to get words count if dma_desc is on free list as it will result
in a NULL dereference because this case wasn't handled properly.

The residual value is now updated properly, avoiding potential
integer overflow by adding the "bytes" to the "bytes_transferred"
instead of the subtraction.
