This is a sample code, feel free to adjust it as needed.

For now looks like it should be better to move the xfer_size updating to
other places, like terminate_all() and tx_status().

I also see now that you have
residue_granularity=DMA_RESIDUE_GRANULARITY_BURST, while tx_status()  in
fact uses segment granularity. This needs to be corrected.

You also must add locking to tx_status(), to protect tdc->dma_desc
pointer updates.
