dmaengine: sh: rz-dmac: Drop read of CHCTRL register
The CHCTRL register has 11 bits that can be updated by software. The
documentation for all these bits states the following:
- A read operation results in 0 being read
- Writing zero does not affect the operation
All bits in the CHCTRL register accessible by software are set and clear
bits.
The documentation for the CLREND bit of CHCTRL states:
Setting this bit to 1 can clear the END bit of the CHSTAT_n/nS register.
Also, the DMA transfer end interrupt is cleared. An attempt to read this
bit results in 0 being read.
1: Clears the END bit.
0: Does not affect the operation.
Since writing zero to any bit in this register does not affect controller
operation and reads always return zero, there is no need to perform
read-modify-write accesses to set the CLREND bit. Drop the read of the
CHCTRL register.
Also, since setting the CLREND bit does not interact with other
functionalities exposed through this register and only clears the END
interrupt, there is no need to lock around this operation. Add a comment
to document this.
