I think you should try to explain better here why you need all the logic
that other drivers don't for the DT case.
I've tried to understand what you are doing with shdma_of_client and
couldn't quite figure it out. The driver is already different from
all the others, because it still uses the 'slave_id' field in
dma_slave_config (only for the non-DT case) that all other drivers
don't use at all.
My guess is that if you manage to clean that up first, all of this
wouldn't be necessary.

Can you explain the purpose of setting the chcr in DT? For all I can
tell, this should come from the device driver when that calls the
dma_slave_config function, unlike the mid_rid value.
