Actually, its not. For H3, there are currently at least 3 register compatible
SoCs: H5 is identical, R40 has 16 dma channels, A64 has 8 channels. So if the
current config structure is kept, we need 3 different compatible strings. Same
for the A23, which is register compatible to e.g. A83t and V3s, but with
different numbers of DMA channels.

So either you decorate the code with a cascade of

if ((of_is_compatible(..A23..) || of_is_compatible(..A83T..) || ...) {
} else if ((of_is_compatible(..H3..) || of_is_compatible(..A64..) || ...) {
} else { /* A31 */
}

in a number of places, or you do it just once.

For 1, 2 and 4 it is the same. The correct register value for 8 bytes,
supported by H3, H5, A64 and R40, is 3.

Which one? sun6i_dma_dev? sun6i_dma_config?

Untangling 3 independent steps - handling of DMA_SLAVE_BUSWIDTH_UNDEFINED,
range checking, and conversion to register value. As the valid ranges depend
on the controller, the code is much easier to read if the range check is done
first, and then the conversion.

Kind regards,
