Return true in advance for the type without the cmd_complete register.
If support the register, we judge if the channel should respond the 
interrupt based on the value of cmd_complete, like bellow.

+{
+       u64 val;

+

+               return false;
+
+        if (!pchan->cmd_complete.gas)
+                return true;
+
+       /*

+       /*

+               return !val;
+       else
+               return !!val;
+}

Yes, what you say is also ok. Just wondering if it is better to simply 
the logic.

Sorry for my mistake.
I meant that the type2 channel always return false in this function and
never respond the interrupt if no check for the GAS register.
Because the 'val' for the type without the register is zero.
