Hrm, I see. For eDMA I think we can support DMA_RESIDUE_GRANULARITY_SEGMENT
granularity. Since according to the documentation the _SEGMENT means that the
DMA position will be updated per periods, which is basically the same thing
what we are doing at the moment when the granularity is
DMA_RESIDUE_GRANULARITY_DESCRIPTOR.

IMHO in the generic dmaengine PCM we should set the SNDRV_PCM_INFO_BATCH for
both cases.
