If I get your point correctly,
On UP, both could not be active. On SMP, tx/rx could be both active, anyway
this depends on secure firmware and Linux firmware design.

Do you have any suggestions about arm,func-ids here?
I was thinking if this is just an instruction, why can't each channel
be represented as a controller, i.e, have exactly one func-id per
controller node. Define as many controllers as you need channels ?
I might have missed to follow this, but what's the advantage of doing so ?
Which can't single controller instance deal with all the channels ?
