> HDMA supports maximum of 64 channels. So if some IP enables 8 or fewer read / write channels only then the number of channels come from dw->wr_ch_cnt and dw->rd_ch_cnt. Now the logic is derived by individual read & write enabled channel count. Earlier, it was assumed that user will enable max of 8 channels which would have worked well using SET_BOTH_CH_32() but as the channels grow, the assumption that equal number of read / write channels and that they are set to max count are enabled might not hold true.

Make sense, please wrap your reply, it is hard to read

AI found existing problem, need seperate patch to fix it.
