dmaengine: Store module owner in dma_device struct
dma_chan_to_owner() dereferences the driver from the struct device to obtain the owner and call module_[get|put](). However, if the backing device is unbound before the dma_device is unregistered, the driver will be cleared and this will cause a NULL pointer dereference. Instead, store a pointer to the owner module in the dma_device struct so the module reference can be properly put when the channel is put, even if the backing device was destroyed first. This change helps to support a safer unbind of DMA engines. If the dma_device is unregistered in the driver's remove function, there's no guarantee that there are no existing clients and a users action may trigger the WARN_ONCE in dma_async_device_unregister() which is unlikely to leave the system in a consistent state. Instead, a better approach is to allow the backing driver to go away and fail any subsequent requests to it.
