[PATCH] dma: mmp-pdma: fix irq handler overwrite physical chan issue

[PATCH] dma: mmp-pdma: fix irq handler overwrite physical chan issue

[Qiao Zhou]

Some dma channels may be reserved for other purpose in other layer,
like secure driver in EL2/EL3. PDMA driver can see the interrupt
status, but it should not try to handle related interrupt, since it
doesn't belong to PDMA driver in kernel. These interrupts should be
handled by corresponding client/module.Otherwise, it will overwrite
illegal memory and cause unexpected issues, since pdma driver only
requests resources for pdma channels.

In PDMA driver, the reserved channels are at the end of total 32
channels. If we find interrupt bit index is not smaller than total
dma channels, we should ignore it.
