Thank you for reviewing.

Got into this issue when all the PCIe endpoint functions were requesting
for a MEMCOPY channel (total 22 endpoint functions) specifically in
bcdma_get_bchan() where the scenario you mentioned above happened.

Vignesh asked me to fix it for all udma_get_*().

I can probably split this patch
017794739702 for bchan and 25dcb5dd7b7c for bchan/rchan/tchan/rflow
