Yes, will remove.

The explanation in the cover letter mentions that dmaengine_slave_config() is
required to be called prior to dmaengine_get_channel_caps(). If we
switch to the alternative API, then that would go away including the
dependency on direction.

Ok, so in this case, the slave driver has informed the dmaengine driver
that the max burst for the channel is foo. That's in units of
addr_width. On the EDMA DMAC, we program burst transfers by setting ACNT
to our per-transfer width (FIFO width in the slave SG case we are
covering here) then BCNT gets the maxburst setting. We then have a CCNT
field for EDMA that has a limit of SZ_64K-1 transfers. Thus, if a slave
driver tells us the maxburst for the channel is foo and our width is
bar, the maximum size of an SG segment in that configuration is:
(SZ_64K - 1) * bar * foo.
