It might be a bit like when pdma->n_chans is bigger than the maximum,
set the pdma->chans to PDMA_MAX_NR_CH, then we could ensure that we
don't access the channels above the maximum. If I understand
correctly, I gave the similar thought in the thread of v2 patch, and
there are some discussions on that, but this way seems to lead to
hard-to-track problems.
