This is mostly a holdover from the existing (current mainline) ASoC structuring at the minute, that also has the DMA configured per machine. This may change depending on future hardware requirements, though.
With multi-component it's possible to register both FIQ and DMA platform together. i.e. ssi0 could use DMA and ssi1 FIQ.
Yup, although I think for pretty much all hardware the decision about which DMA driver to use is going to be fixed by silicon consideratons (eg, in the i.MX case it'd be odd to want to use the FIQ driver when {S,}DMA support is available) so it probably does make sense for the DAIs to be able to provide at least a default DMA controller.
Yes, exactly - this was just an example showing two different DMA controllers.
