Matteo Facchinetti adfa57033d mmc: mxcmmc: fix race condition when dma finish a data transfer
During a read of data block using dma, driver might have two ways to finish to read
and free the resources:
1) checking STATUS_DATA_TRANS_DONE mask, in the mxcmci_irq() routine
   (pending to mmc irq)
2) mxmmc driver, registers also a mxcmci_dma_callback() and when transfer is finished,
   dma driver calls this callback. (pending to dma irq)
Both ways are concurrent with each other.

Race condition happens when following events occur:
/* (1) mxcmci driver start data transfer */

In accordance with the other drivers that using the dma engine,
fix it, leaving *only* to dma driver the complete control to
ending the read operation.

Removing STATUS_READ_OP_DONE event activation, has as effect
to force mxcmci driver to handle the finish data transfer only
by mxcmci dma callback.
