So, you place the transfers to DMA_VER22's channel

and issue_pending on a channel which does not have anything pending?
How client knows which of the 'only need to be ON' channel to enable
when it placed a transfer to another channel?

How would the client driver (and the IP) would be integrated with
different system DMA which have standard channel management?

If DMA_VER22 knows which intel,lgm-* it should place the transfer then
with virt-dma you can handle that just fine?

Do you have public documentation for the DMA? It sounds a bit like TI's
EDMA which is in essence is a two part  setup:
CC: Channel Controller - to submit transfers (like your DMA_VER22)
TC: Transfer Controller - it executes the transfers submitted by the CC

One CC can be backed by multiple TCs. I don't have direct control over
the TC (can not start/stop), it is controlled by the CC.

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/dma/ti-edma.txt

Or is it a different setup?
