Hi Arnd,
Thanks for pointing this issue.

stm32_dma_get_burst() returns a negative error code for invalid
input, which gets turned into a large u32 value in stm32_dma_prep_dma_memcpy()
that in turn triggers an assertion because it does not fit into a
two-bit field:

I only see this with older gcc versions like gcc-6.5 or gcc-9.5 but not
with gcc-12.2 or higher. My best guess is that this is the result of
changes to __builtin_constant_p(), which seems to treat the 'cold'
codepath after an error message as a constant branch, while in newer
gcc versions the range check is skipped after determining that
dma_burst is never a compile-time constant.
As an easy workaround, assume the error can happen, so try to handle this
by failing stm32_dma_prep_dma_memcpy() before the assertion.

Instead of hard-coding this check, I suggest to copy what is done in
stm32_dma_set_xfer_param() where stm32_dma_get_burst() is also used.
So, change dma_burst from u32 to int, and check for negative value and
failing in this case before the assertion of FIELD_PREP.
