The parameter which will be trickier is the timer, which is also clamped
but depends on the (DMA) clock speed. So theoretically it may be
different if the clock gets changed at runtime between when we set
coalesce and when we apply it. But do we even support dynamic rate
changes for that clock?

In either case, I think this will be easier to do as part of [1], since I
am already rearranging the calculation in that patch.
