A couple of nit-picks below. After addressing them you can add

Preserve order, 'a' goes before 'b'.

You used decimal values elsewhere (id est 16), use upper limit in decimal
as well.

I don't see the need in having that maximum being defined separately (we don't
have that for 16, no need to have it for 128.

Since some ISA:s have one assembly instruction to get both / and % divisions,
it's better to use that instead of IS_ALIGNED(). Can you check code generation
for x86_64 / x86?

#define DW_UART_CPR_FIFO_MODE_FROM_SIZE(size) \
(BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO((size) > 2048) + BUILD_BUG_ON_ZERO((size) % 16) + ((size) / 16))

Note, I dropped first division in order to show the upper limit in a plain
number since 16 is also FIFO size in bytes.

Also note, this evaluates (size) three times, which might be problematic,
but I think we can leave with that for now.
