Hello Ben,
Thank you very much for keeping it up. I have couple comments, please see them below.

You could pre-assign ahbptr=0xffffffff and result=residual here, then you could remove all the duplicated assigns below.

The "tmp" variable isn't used anywhere in the code, please remove it.

This doesn't look correct because TRM says "Busy bit gets set as soon as a channel is enabled and gets cleared after transfer completes", hence a cleared BUSY bit means that all transfers are completed and result=residual is incorrect here. Given that there is a check for EOC bit being set below, this hunk should be removed.

Please use udelay(1) because there is no ndelay on arm32 and ndelay(100) is getting rounded up to 1usec. AFAIK, arm64 doesn't have reliable ndelay on Tegra either because timer rate changes with the CPU frequency scaling.
Secondly done=0 isn't a error case, technically this could be the case when tegra_dma_update_residual() is invoked just after starting the transfer. Hence I think this do-while loop and timeout checking aren't needed at all since done=0 is a perfectly valid case.
Altogether seems the tegra_dma_update_residual() could be reduced to:
static unsigned int tegra_dma_update_residual(struct tegra_dma_channel *tdc,
struct tegra_dma_sg_req *sg_req,
struct tegra_dma_desc *dma_desc,
unsigned int residual)
{
unsigned long status, wcount;
if (list_is_first(&sg_req->node, &tdc->pending_sg_req))
return residual;
if (tdc->tdma->chip_data->support_separate_wcount_reg)
wcount = tdc_read(tdc, TEGRA_APBDMA_CHAN_WORD_TRANSFER);
status = tdc_read(tdc, TEGRA_APBDMA_CHAN_STATUS);
if (!tdc->tdma->chip_data->support_separate_wcount_reg)
wcount = status;
if (status & TEGRA_APBDMA_STATUS_ISE_EOC)
return residual - sg_req->req_len;
return residual - get_current_xferred_count(tdc, sg_req, wcount);
}
