[PATCH v2 3/6] dma/ioat: fix incorrect error reporting on restart

When the DMA device was stopped and restarted by the driver, the control
register specifying the behaviour on error was not getting correctly
reset. This caused unit tests to fail as explicitly introduced errors
were got getting reported back.

Fix by moving the setting of the register to the start function from the
probe function.
