Subject: [PATCH] iio: adc: at91-sama5d2_adc: fix DMA conversion crash

After the move of the postenable code to preenable, the DMA start was
done before the DMA init, which is not correct.
The DMA is initialized in set_watermark. Because of this, we need to call
the DMA start functions in set_watermark, after the DMA init, instead of
preenable hook, when the DMA is not properly setup yet.

Fixes: f3c034f61775 ("iio: at91-sama5d2_adc: adjust iio_triggered_buffer_{predisable,postenable} positions")

Hi,

This crash is in the kernel since 5.8-rc1

Please have a look at discussion here:

Basic approach looks fine, but if we were to get an error from the
buffer_prepare() function, should we be looking to disable dma if we
enabled it earlier in the set_watermark callback?

Looks superficially to me like we may need to unwind some stuff if this fails.
