Let's reduce the surface of the use of __dma_request_channel().
Hopefully we can make it internall to the DMA drivers or kill for good
completely.

Suggest:

Reduce use internal __dma_request_channel() function in public
dmaengine.h

I think this change is okay, but I hope the following patches, which make
__dma_request_channel() as internal only. otherwise, it looks not necessary.

Okay.

As explained in the commit message it's the first baby step to this
direction. But sure, when I have more time I'll continue. In any case
I think this change is good on this own as it shows the use inside the
header.  The people who want to have an example of the use may wrongly
take the existing code as "good to go" and this even might pass the
review somewhere. That said, it's not only reducing the use, but has an
educational purpose as well.
