No. You misunderstood what I meant. We shouldn't use a runtime parameters values
here. Why would we? Property "snps,max-burst-len" matches DMAH_CHx_MAX_MULT_SIZE
config parameter. See a comment to the "SRC_MSIZE" and "DEST_MSIZE" fields of the
registers. You'll find out that their maximum value is determined by the
DMAH_CHx_MAX_MULT_SIZE parameter, which must belong to the set [4, 8, 16, 32, 64,
128, 256]. So no matter how you synthesize the DW DMAC block you'll have at least
4x max burst length supported.
