The prefetch engine sends a dma request once a FIFO threshold has
been met. No other requests are received until the previous request
is handled.

Starting an edma transfer (dma_async_issue_pending) results in any
previous event for the dma channel to be cleared. Therefore, starting
the prefetch engine before initiating the dma transfer may result in
the prefetch triggering a dma request but instead of it being handled
it can end up being cleared. This will result in a hang since the code
will continue to wait for the dma request to complete.

By initiating the dma request before enabling the prefetch engine this
race condition is avoided and no dma request are missed/cleared.
