Russell King - ARM Linux 8ac695463f dmaengine: ensure all DMA engine drivers initialize their cookies
Ensure all DMA engine drivers initialize their cookies in the same way,
so that they all behave in a similar fashion.  This means their first
issued cookie will be 2 rather than 1, and will increment to INT_MAX
before returning 1 and starting over.
