Subject: [PATCH v5 4/4] DMA: Freescale: eliminate a compiling warning

From: Hongbo Zhang <hongbo.zhang@...escale.com>

The variable cookie is initialized in a list_for_each_entry loop, if(unlikely)
the list is empty, this variable will be used uninitialized, so we get a gcc
compiling warning about this. This patch fixes this defect by setting an
initial value to the varialble cookie.
