So I guess this was changed when moving the memcpy channels
into the driver.

And at that point you forgot to rewrite this as
kzalloc((num_log_chans + ARRAY_SIZE(dma40_memcpy_channels)), ...)?

So this change should also include the memcpy channels.

I'll go back and comment again on the patch moving the
memcpy channels into the driver.
