There are 4 options: 32, 64, 128, and 256 bits. I would prefer to see
the value in conjunction with
real value in the register, namely 2 for 32, 3 - 64, 4 - 128, 5 - 256.

And taking into consideration my upper comment, it could be easier to use
min_t(unsigned int, max_mem_width, dwc_fast_fls(...)) here and there.

Might be I missed something, but why is it slave configuration?
I think the controller (actually channel) structure is more suitable
to keep that field inside.
