The members in the LLI list is released in an incorrect way. Read and
store the next member before releasing it to avoid accessing the freed
memory.

Fixes: a90e173f3faf ("dmaengine: sun6i: Add cyclic capability")

Have you seen this issue, a panic trace? Has some static checker flagged
this?

I see the code *seems* equivalent. The prev is assigned to txd->v_lli,
checked and then code block will be executed and updated. When do you
see the case when we access freed memory?
