When high performance with multiple i2c messages in a single transfer
is required, employ Block Event Interrupt (BEI) to trigger interrupts
after specific messages transfer and the last message transfer,
thereby reducing interrupts.

For each i2c message transfer, a series of Transfer Request Elements(TREs)
must be programmed, including config tre for frequency configuration,
go tre for holding i2c address and dma tre for holding dma buffer address,
length as per the hardware programming guide. For transfer using BEI,
multiple I2C messages may necessitate the preparation of config, go,
and tx DMA TREs. However, a channel TRE size of 64 is often insufficient,
potentially leading to failures due to inadequate memory space.

Add additional argument to dma-cell property for channel TRE size.
With this, adjust the channel TRE size via the device tree.
The default size is 64, but clients can modify this value based on
their specific requirements.

Thanks for pointing it out, yeah it should be 'dma-cells'.

Thanks, i followed the instructions and resolved errors which observed 
with 'make dt_binding_check'.
But in V2 patch, i have reverted the DT and binding changes related to 
adding new argument for dma-cells property and instead used existing 
value for channel TRE size in GPI driver.

Regrads,
