What about this:
In case of AVR32, the arch code will indicate:
static struct dw_dma_platform_data dw_dmac0_data = {
.nr_channels = 3,
/* DMAC supports up to 32-bit memory access */
.mem_access_32_bit_only = true,
};
ARM users won't have to change anything because mem_access_32_bit_only
will be false and therefor 'dw->mem_64_bit' will become true
