1. Let us not restrict this to only interleave (hint we can in future
replace cyclic API)
2. DMA_PREP_REPEAT telling the transaction shall be automatically
repeated is okay. No issues with that

I am happy with this bit, I think we dont need to specify something like
DMA_PREP_LOAD_NEXT given the explanation here, so adding
DMA_PREP_LOAD_EOT would mean that.
Can we add a corresponding EOB as well to complete this
