Are we really going to add a set of hooks for each DMA engine whizbang
feature?
What's the alternative? But, also see patch 9 "dmaengine: reduce
backend address permutations" it relieves some of this pain.
That will get ugly when DMA engines support memcpy, xor, crc32, sha1,
aes, and a dozen other transforms.

Please use the more readable style that explicitly lists bits:
DMA_MEMCPY = (1 << 0),
DMA_XOR = (1 << 1),
...
I prefer this as well, although at one point I was told (not by you)
the absolute number was preferred when I was making changes to
drivers/scsi/sata_vsc.c. In any event I'll change it...

Clearly, each operation needs to be more compartmentalized.
This just isn't scalable, when you consider all the possible transforms.
Ok, one set of counters per op is probably overkill what about lumping
operations into groups and just tracking at the group level? i.e.
memcpy, memset -> string_count, string_bytes_transferred
crc, sha1, aes -> hash_count, hash_transferred
xor, pq_xor -> sum_count, sum_transferred
