Just to be clear. It has only one benefit - an ability to preserve a
device-specific data in the dw_edma_debugfs_entry structure. That data
will be the dw_edma private data instance, which in it turn will be
used to access the register spin lock. All of that in general is
required to support more than one DW eDMA controllers in the system.

Good question. It has just slipped through my fingers in from the
previous code. You are right. I should drop it.
