The FIFOs are some internal property of HDLC controller (it isn't
documented but they probably connect the bus master DMA controller to
the bit-stuffer and transmitter (and bit-destuffer and receiver in the
RX path)). You just need to send a message to HSS to tell it the
correct value.

Queues, on the other hand, can be 1, 2 or 4-words wide (32, 64 or 128
bits). I think nothing uses/needs 2 or 4-word queues so they aren't
implemented.

4E1 mode uses the same 1-word queues. It just uses more queues :-)
