By BAM_FIFO_SIZE I meant a FIFO depth for hw descriptors, i.e. how many
hw descriptors could be pushed into the descriptor FIFO. In our case we
wrote BAM_P_FIFO_SIZES register with SZ_32K - 8, which means that the
FIFO will be 4095 hw descriptors deep.

In fact the important patch in this series 4/5 where I corrected the
value we wrote in BAM_P_FIFO_SIZES register.

4/5 and 5/5 can be postponed till we have better decision...
