Subject: [PATCH] [FIX] dmaengine: virt-dma: Free descriptor after callback

Free the vd (virt descriptor) after the callback is called.  In EDMA driver
atleast which uses virt-dma, we make use of the desc during the callback and if
its dangerously freed before the callback is called. I also noticed this in
omap-dma dmaengine driver.
