This looks unnecessarily complex.

Why not just do dma_request_slave_channel_compat() unconditionally here?
It's not an error for MMCI if that fails. If you want to keep the warning
in the case dma_rx_channel is provided by not working, you can do it like

host->dma_rx_channel = dma_request_slave_channel(dev, "rx");
if (!host->dma_rx_channel && plat->dma_rx_param) {
host->dma_rx_channel = dma_request_channel(mask,
plat->dma_filter,
plat->dma_rx_param);
...
}
