dmaengine: pl330: fix descriptor allocation fail
If two concurrent threads call pl330_get_desc() when DMAC descriptor
pool is empty it is possible that allocation for one of threads will fail
with message:
kernel: dma-pl330 20078000.dma-controller: pl330_get_desc:2469 ALERT!
Here how that can happen. Thread A calls pl330_get_desc() to get
descriptor. If DMAC descriptor pool is empty pl330_get_desc() allocates
new descriptor on shared pool using add_desc() and then get newly
allocated descriptor using pluck_desc(). At the same time thread B calls
pluck_desc() and take newly allocated descriptor. In that case descriptor
allocation for thread A will fail.
Using on-stack pool for new descriptor allow avoid the issue described.
The patch modify pl330_get_desc() to use on-stack pool for allocation
new descriptors.
