You really shouldn't be overloading the generic API with your own semantics.
DMA_SLAVE_CONFIG should take a dma_slave_config and nothing else.

This is a clasic example of where to not use devm_request_irq. 'chan' is
accessed in the interrupt handler, but if you use devm_request_irq 'chan'
will be freed before the interrupt handler has been released, which means
there is now a race condition where the interrupt handler can access already
freed memory.

There is a new helper function called dma_get_slave_channel, which makes
this much easier. Take a look at the k3dma.c driver for an example.
