Isn't this just the same problem as PL08x or any other system which
has multiple requests from devices, but only a limited number of
hardware channels - so you have to route the request signals to the
appropriate hardware channels according to the requests queued up?

If so, no new "custom" APIs are required, it's already able to be
solved within the DMA engine drivers...

(We also have more complex situations already supported, such as
PL08x with a FPGA routing on three of its request signals.)
