    * device_terminate_all
      - Aborts all the pending and ongoing transfers on the channel
-     - This command should operate synchronously on the channel,
-       terminating right away all the channels
+     - For aborted transfers the complete callback should not be called
+     - Can be called from atomic context or from within a complete
+       callback of a descriptor. Must not sleep. Drivers must be able

+     - Must synchronize the termination of a channel to the current
+       context.
+     - Must make sure that memory for previously submitted
+       descriptors is no longer accessed by the DMA controller.
+     - Must make sure that all complete callbacks for previously
+       submitted descriptors have finished running and none are
+       scheduled to run.
