The debug message could still report success when getting the channels
was OK but configuring them failed. This actually caused a minor detour
when debugging DMA problems, so make sure the success is only reported
when the channels are really ready-to-use.

Thanks for your patch!

This was not a real success indicator, which could indeed confuse
people, but an obfuscated NULL-pointer still prints as NULL, right?

This means we no longer see a debug message in case only one DMA
channel could be requested, thus requiring manual addition of more code
to find out what was really wrong?

Well...

... you can simply enable basic DMA debugging to find this out. I don't
see value in adding a separate debug printout in the driver.

Applied for next, thanks!
