For some reason arguments to most of the circular buffers
macros are used in reverse, tail is used for head and vice versa.

This leads to bam thinking that there is an extra descriptor at the
end and leading to retransmitting descriptor which was not scheduled
by any driver. This happens after MAX_DESCRIPTORS (4096) are scheduled
and done, so most of the drivers would not notice this, unless they are
heavily using bam dma. Originally found this issue while testing
SoundWire over SlimBus on DB845c which uses DMA very heavily for
read/writes.

Thanks for looking at this,
TBH, usage of CIRC_* macros is only valid for power-of-2 buffers,
In bam case MAX_DESCRIPTORS is 4095.
Am really not sure why 8 bytes have been removed from fifo data buffer size.
So basically usage of these macros is incorrect in bam case, this need 
to be fixed properly.

Do you agree?

Vinod, can you hold off with this patch, I will try to find some time 
this week to cook up a better patch removing the usage of these macros.

Isn't that incorrect to do that, pretending to have more descriptors 
than we actually have?

 The Macro's expect that buffer size is power of 2. So we are infact passing the actual correct
 size ( MAX_DESCRIPTORS + 1 = 4096)

This will make the circular buffer macros happy but question is that do 
we actually have that many descriptor buffers?

This is what is in the driver:

#define BAM_DESC_FIFO_SIZE	SZ_32K
#define MAX_DESCRIPTORS (BAM_DESC_FIFO_SIZE / sizeof(struct bam_desc_hw) 
- 1)
#define BAM_FIFO_SIZE	(SZ_32K - 8)

Wouldn't having MAX_DESCRIPTORS + 1 = 4096  lead to overflow the actual 
descriptor memory size of (SZ_32K - 8) ?
