dma-debug: fix overlap detection
Commit 0abdd7a81b7e ("dma-debug: introduce debug_dma_assert_idle()") was reworked to expand the overlap counter to the full range expressable by 3 tag bits, but it has a thinko in treating the overlap counter as a pure reference count for the entry. Instead of deleting when the reference-count drops to zero, we need to delete when the overlap-count drops below zero. Also, when detecting overflow we can just test the overlap-count > MAX rather than applying special meaning to 0. Regression report available here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=139073373932386&w=2 This patch, now tested on the original net_dma case, sees the expected handful of reports before the eventual data corruption occurs.
