 64K limit is for APBDMA. This patch has APBDMA support only. No GPCDMA support so buf size limit is based on APBDMA.
 GPCDMA supports upto 1GB. 

 I think dma_buf_size is only for buffer allocation so shouldnât harm for exact 64K.
Will take a look at dma driver...

All msg reads, max length is 65535
All msg writes, max length requests is also limited to 65535 due to u16 type of msg.len
So, In any case, we donât need 65536 bytes.
