I'm not sure if this is such a good idea. The DMA provider is responsible
for setting this up. We shouldn't be overwriting this here on the DMA
consumer side. This will just mask the bug that the provider didn't setup
this correctly and might cause bugs on its own if it is not correct. It will
lead to conflicts with DMA providers that have multiple consumers (e.g.
shared DMA core). And also the current assumption is that if a driver
doesn't set this up explicitly the maximum segement size is 65536.
