Looks fine. I have a couple of minor comments, if you address
them you can add "Reviewed-by: Jose Abreu <joabreu@xxxxxxxxxxxx>"
in next version.

Hmm, may dev_warn would be more suitable because with dev_dbg and
no dynamic debug enabled user will not know what happened. Also,
I am aware that in direction DMA_MEM_TO_DEV there will be no
corruption in PC side but it will be corruption in VDMA side
because it will read from invalid memory locations. Maybe drop
the check for channel direction.

I am also not fancy about dropping prints that are not grep'able
(you do not break line in each print so a user searching for the
whole string will not find it). Try to do a line break in each
print or change the string to be smaller.

Best regards,
