I think using the bitmasks is more object oriented, e.g. for direction, 
what directions does your dmac supported? host_mem_to_mem(1)? 
mem_to_mem(2)? mem_to_dev(3)? dev_to_dev(4)? mem_to_link(5)? or the 
opposite? The combination of these can be up to 10.

for byt/bdw, we can support (1)(2)(3)(4)(6)(7)(8)(9);
for apl/cnl, host_dmac_output can support (1) only, host_dmac_input can 
support (6) only, gpdma can support (2)(3)(4)(7)(8)(9), link_dmac_output 
can support (5), link_dmac_input can support (10) only.

if you tell these clear enough, you will be able to use unify logic in a 
common dma_get():
		/* check DMAC copy dir */
		if (dma[i].plat_data.caps & require_cap == require_cap)
			retrun dma[i]; // very simple, isn't it?

for the user:
byt/bdw: playback,
	host: dma_get(host_mem_to_mem);
	dai: dma_get(mem_to_dev);
     capture,
	host: dma_get(mem_to_hostmem);
	dai: dma_get(dev_to_mem_);
     page_table_parsing,
	dma_get(host_mem_to_mem);
     dma_trace,
	dma_get(mem_to_host_mem).
apl/cnl: playback,
	host: dma_get(host_mem_to_mem);
	dai: dma_get(mem_to_dev);
     capture,
	host: dma_get(mem_to_hostmem);
	dai: dma_get(dev_to_mem_);
     page_table_parsing,
	dma_get(host_mem_to_mem);
     dma_trace,
	dma_get(mem_to_host_mem).


can you see what? with this, you can make the code very clean/unified in 
host/dai/dma_trace...

Hi Liam, can you explain more about this? Where is the limitation about 
only one channel draining at the same time, from DMAC or the user? Per 
my understanding, channels of the same DMAC are quite independent, they 
can in draining at the same time from the point of DMAC. And, we event 
don't use the DMA draining feature yet.

Thanks,
