Some DMA transfers, as for H3 audio, ask for 4 as a burst value.

This is true only for the H3.

For the other SoCs that we support, the only valid values are 0 and 2,
so we need to reject those values.

We should do that based on the compatible.

The easiest solution would be to expose the available burst sizes in
the probe, and just our new one if we match that compatible, and any
invalid burst size would be rejected by the framework. Vinod, any
objection to that?

Thanks!

Do you think that we should also check if the requested ports are
valid, i.e. have a list/bitmap of the possible input/output ports per
SoC, instead of just only the ID of the max port?

That would require having a map of the possible endpoints for a given
device, which would be quite difficult to accomplish.

I don't think customer drivers have access to that anyway, only the
provider driver is parsing the DT to retrieve the ID. And we already
trust the DT for so many things it would be a bit pointless to check
that.

The ports are already checked against 'nr_max_requests' which is the
index of the higher port. I think that this check exists because the
ports are given by the DMA clients.

If this check is needed, as 'nr_max_requests' is lower than 32, 2 maps
(in and out) on 32 bits would do the job.
If this check is not needed (because we trust the DTs), the actual
check (port <= nr_max_requests) could be removed.
