We want to allocate enough space for CS5535AUDIO_MAX_DESCRIPTORS + 1 elements and we also want the size to rounded up to PAGE_SIZE. The "+ 1" is because we don't use the zeroeth element. CS5535AUDIO_MAX_DESCRIPTORS is 128. Each element is 8 bytes. So it should be "(128 + 1) * 8 = 1032" but rounded up that becomes 4096. In the original code, it did the "+ 1" after rounding up so so it allocated 4097 bytes. The DMA API will probably round this up to two pages.
