The name field is used for "apbdma.%d" which is rarely going to be

operation of the driver either.

Do you mean 'never' above instead of 'rarely'? The max number of
channels is never more than 2 digits and so the change is fine with
me. So for the change ...

I've never seen a system with more than 64 channels in it, but it didn't
seem worth trying to get it below 12 anyway.
