Sorry don't see exactly what you mean.
frm_irq and numf are independent of each other and could
cover more cases than a single flag.

AFAIK, usually the ring buffer is divided into N (>1) different
periods that need
to be transferred in endless loop.

Some cyclic transfers might want callback done after each period/frame
while some not. We can't cover using just one flag.
