buf_size should be normalized to actual buffer size sent to the DMA engine, 
i.e., either cfg->src_ptrs * src_sz or cfg->dst_ptrs * dst_sz

Example, with 15 source segments and 15 destination segments and 64B buf_size the actual
buffer size copied by the DMA engine would be 60 bytes (64B / 15 = 4B per segment).
