Subject: [PATCH] dmaengine: sh: rz-dmac: Protect the driver specific lists

The driver lists (ld_free, ld_queue) are used in
rz_dmac_free_chan_resources(), rz_dmac_terminate_all(),
rz_dmac_issue_pending(), and rz_dmac_irq_handler_thread(), all under
the virtual channel lock. Take the same lock in rz_dmac_prep_slave_sg()
and rz_dmac_prep_dma_memcpy() as well to avoid concurrency issues, since
these functions also check whether the lists are empty and update or
remove list entries.
