This small series cleans up the idma64 descriptor allocation and fixes a
long-standing truncation bug in idma64_prep_slave_sg().
Patch 1 replaces the open-coded two-stage allocation in
idma64_alloc_desc() with kzalloc_flex() using a flexible array member
for the hardware descriptor list, annotated with __counted_by for extra
runtime bounds checking. The now-redundant helper is removed.
Patch 2 addresses the hardware limit. The iDMA 64-bit CTL_HI BLOCK_TS
field is only 17 bits (IDMA64C_CTLH_BLOCK_TS_MASK = 0x1ffff), so when a
scatterlist entry exceeds that size the driver would silently truncate
the transfer length. Use sg_nents_for_dma() to size the descriptor ring
after splitting oversized entries, and iterate the new per-chunk loop so
each hardware descriptor stays within the field.
