Thank you for the comment. Understood, so it seems outside the intended
semantics of .peripheral_config.
Now I see two possible directions:
1. Keep my original approach (i.e. add a dw-edma specific exported helper in
dw-edma-core, like dw_edma_chan_irq_config()).
2. Introduce a more generic mechanism than .peripheral_config/size (e.g.
.hw_config/size), and use that instead.
If you see a better approach, I'd be glad to hear it. Also, Mani's input on
whether or not (1) is acceptable in the overall picture would be helpful
(from a dw-edma-core maintainer perspective).
