In cyclic mode of DMA, the byte transferred can be more

residuals based on the current position of DMA transfer to
bytes requested i.e. bytes required to transfer to reach
bytes requested from current DMA position.

This makes sense to me, although I wonder if details like this aren't
something that the dmaengine core should be handling.
No core doesn't know anything about the how much you are transferring
and where you are. That is the driver to calculate and provide.

Just for confirmation, are you going to apply this patch or do I need to do anything here.

Thanks,
Laxman
