Subject: [PATCH v2 1/6] serial: imx: only set DMA rx-ing when DMA starts

From: Nandor Han <nandor.han@...com>

Avoid the situation when `dma_is_rxing` could incorrectly signal that
DMA RX channel is receiving data in case DMA preparation or sg mapping
fails.

This commit fixes the issues by moving the assignment of dma_is_rxing
out of imx_disable_rx_int(), then the variable is set to 1 from
start_rx_dma() only when the preparation is correctly done.
