They are u32 fields!

For example (from pxa_dma.c):
const enum dma_slave_buswidth widths = DMA_SLAVE_BUSWIDTH_1_BYTE |
DMA_SLAVE_BUSWIDTH_2_BYTES | DMA_SLAVE_BUSWIDTH_4_BYTES;
And there are a lot of drivers, which don't use BIT for this fields.
sh/shdmac.c
sh/rcar-dmac.c
qcom/bam_dma.c
mmp_pdma.c
ste_dma40.c
And many others...

MMIO? This IP works exactly via memory-mapped I/O.

This IP can be (ans is) configured with small block size.
(note, that I am not saying about runtime HW configuration)
And there is opportunity what we can't use sg_list directly and need to
split sg_list to a smaller chunks.

As I remember there was an idea to give higher priority to audio dma
chanels.

Hmm...
Do you mean I should left error descriptors in desc_issued list
or I should create another list (like desc_error) in my driver and move
error descriptors to desc_error list?
And when exactly should I free error descriptors?
I checked hsu/hsu.c dma driver implementation:
vdma descriptor is deleted from desc_issued list when transfer
starts. When descriptor marked as error descriptor
vchan_cookie_complete isn't called for this descriptor. And this
descriptor isn't placed in any list. So error descriptors *never*
will be freed.
I don't actually like this approach.

Firstly I only incrememt counter.
Secondly explicitly call my resume function.
I call them explicitly because I need driver to work also without
Runtime PM. So I can't just call pm_runtime_get here instead of
pm_runtime_get_noresume + axi_dma_runtime_resume.
Of course I can copy *all* code from axi_dma_runtime_resume
to ->probe() function, but I don't really like this idea.

Again - PAUSED is per-channel flag. So, even if we have status field in
each descriptor, it is simpler to use one per-channel flag instead of
plenty per-descriptor flags.
When we pausing/resuming dma channel it is simpler to set only one flag
instead of writing DMA_PAUSED to *each* descriptor status field.

Yes, only one module.
Should I move all this definitions to axi_dma_platform.c file and rid
of both axi_dma_platform_reg.h and axi_dma_platform.h headers?

This definitions are the fields of some registers. So they are also
different.
