That's not going to work very well.  Device drivers typically request
dma channels in their probe functions or when the device is opened.
This means that reserving one of the few channels there will inevitably
make some other device fail to operate.

No that doesnt make sense at all, you should get a channel only when you
want to use it and not in probe!

Tell that to just about every single driver ever written.
