davinci: edma: clear events in edma_start()
This patch fixes an issue where a DMA channel can erroneously process an event generated by a previous transfer. A failure case is where DMA is being used for SPI transmit and receive channels on OMAP L138. In this case there is a single bit that controls all event generation from the SPI peripheral. Therefore it is possible that between when edma_stop() has been called for the transmit channel on a previous transfer and edma_start() is called for the transmit channel on a subsequent transfer, that a transmit event has been generated. The fix is to clear events in edma_start(). This prevents false events from being processed when events are enabled for that channel.
