Looking at the dmaengine API, I believe we got it wrong.
max_burst in dma_slave_config denotes the largest amount of data
a single transfer should be, as described in dmaengine.h:
* @src_maxburst: the maximum number of words (note: words, as in
* units of the src_addr_width member, not bytes) that can be sent
* in one burst to the device. Typically something like half the
* FIFO depth on I/O peripherals so you don't overflow it. This
* may or may not be applicable on memory sources.
* @dst_maxburst: same as src_maxburst but for destination target
* mutatis mutandis.
The DMA engine driver should be free to select whatever burst size
that doesn't exceed this. So for max_burst = 4, the driver can select
burst = 4 for controllers that do support it, or burst = 1 for those
that don't, and do more bursts.
This also means we can increase max_burst for the audio codec, as
the FIFO is 64 samples deep for stereo, or 128 samples for mono.
If we agree on the above I can send some patches for this.
