The failure is happening because this check is failing:

	/* devices with multiple channels need special handling as we need to
	 * ensure that all channels are either private or public.
	 */
	if (dev->chancnt > 1 && !dma_has_cap(DMA_PRIVATE, dev->cap_mask))
		list_for_each_entry(chan, &dev->channels, device_node) {
			/* some channels are already publicly allocated */
			if (chan->client_count) {

which is happening because dma1chan0 (which is on the same DMA
controller as the SPI controller) and in fact every other DMA channel
had references grabbed by the network stack dmaengine helpers which I'd
enabled in config.  The fact that they do that is unhelpful, it renders
the API mostly useless, but is nothing to do with this series.

Having tweaked the config everything appears to work so:

though the whole thing with the filter function is as I say a bit fun
from a code review point of view.
