Subject: [PATCH v4 1/6] dmaengine: dw-edma: Fix the ch_count hdma callback

The current check of ch_en enabled to know the maximum number of available
hardware channels is wrong as it check the number of ch_en register set
but all of them are unset at probe. This register is set at the
dw_hdma_v0_core_start function which is run lately before a DMA transfer.

The HDMA IP have no way to know the number of hardware channels available
like the eDMA IP, then let set it to maximum channels and let the platform
set the right number of channels.
