suppose it should be pre channel config, why need check chip's informaiton?

Feel like it make things complex, most likely use pcie ep probe, it should
be use DW_EDMA_CH_IRQ_LOCAL.

If probe from dw-edma-pcie.c, it should be use DW_EDMA_CH_IRQ_REMOTE.

Add default mode, it make check logic become complex.

suppose it is pre-channel config?
