[PATCH v5] bus: mhi: host: Avoid ringing EV DB if there is no elements to process

[Vivek Pernamitta]

As mhi_poll function can be called by mhi client drivers
which will call process_event, which will ring DB even if
there no ring elements to process. This could cause
doorbell event to be processed by MHI device to check for
any ring elements even it is none and also it will occupy
lot of bandwidth on peripheral when mhi_poll() is called in
aggressive loop.
