Why is this defined for slaves?  Surely the size of the FIFO in the
controller is a property of the controller not the slave?

This isn't legible.  Use a switch statement, or better yet just divide.

Please avoid such extensive use of the ternery operator, it's not good
for legibility.

We have a bunch of return statements further up the function in cases
where the FIFO can't be used which means that if we're in FIFO mode then
hit one of those we'll not disable FIFO mode as far as I can tell?
