Jon, I realized that my v6 variant is wrong too because
tegra_dma_terminate_all() -> tdc->isr_handler() will put RPM, and thus,
the RPM enable-count will be wrecked in this case.

I'm now leaning to adopt yours variant and simply remove the
tegra_dma_stop() from handle_continuous_head_request() because there
shouldn't be any harm in keeping DMA active in the case of error
condition. Besides, these error conditions are very extreme cases that
should never happen in practice.

The "list_empty(&tdc->pending_sg_req)" error seems couldn't ever happen
at all, I'll remove it in v7.
