spi: bcm2835: Drop dma_pending flag
The BCM2835 SPI driver uses a flag to keep track of whether a DMA
transfer is in progress.

The flag is used to avoid terminating DMA channels multiple times if a
transfer finishes orderly while simultaneously the SPI core invokes the
->handle_err() callback because the transfer took too long.  However
terminating DMA channels multiple times is perfectly fine, so the flag
is unnecessary for this particular purpose.

The flag is also used to avoid invoking bcm2835_spi_undo_prologue()
multiple times under this race condition.  However multiple *concurrent*
invocations can no longer happen since commit 2527704d84 ("spi:
bcm2835: Synchronize with callback on DMA termination") because the
->handle_err() callback now uses the _sync() variant when terminating
DMA channels.

The only raison d'être of the flag is therefore that
bcm2835_spi_undo_prologue() cannot cope with multiple *sequential*
invocations.  Achieve that by setting tx_prologue to 0 at the end of
the function.  Subsequent invocations thus become no-ops.

With that, the dma_pending flag becomes unnecessary, so drop it.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
