[PATCH V4 17/17] i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Increase DMA transfer ring size to maximum

The DMA transfer ring is currently limited to 16 entries, despite the
MIPI I3C HCI supporting up to 32 devices. When the ring lacks space for a
new transfer list, the driver returns -EBUSY, which can be unexpected
for clients.
Increase the DMA transfer ring size to the maximum supported value of
255 entries. This effectively eliminates ring-space exhaustion in
practice and avoids the complexity of adding secondary queuing
mechanisms.
Even at the maximum size, the memory overhead remains small
(approximately 24 bytes per entry by default).
