Hi Jose Miguel Abreu,
Thanks for the review....

If h/w is configured for more than 1 frame buffer and user submits more than one frame buffer
We can submit more than one frame/ segment to hw right??

Yep will fix in v2...
If (if (list_empty(&chan->pending_list)) || (i == chan->num_frms)
break;
Above condition is sufficient right???

Do we really need to check for valid address???
I didn't get you what to do you mean by invalid address could you please explain???
In the driver we are reading form the pending_list which will be updated by pep_interleaved_dma
Call so we are under assumption that user sends the proper address right???

Sure will fix in v2...
