fwiw for EDMA on daVinci we have these (for da850):
static const struct dma_slave_map da850_edma0_map[] = {
	{ "davinci-mcasp.0", "rx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 0) },
	{ "davinci-mcasp.0", "tx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 1) },
	{ "davinci-mcbsp.0", "rx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 2) },
	{ "davinci-mcbsp.0", "tx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 3) },
	{ "davinci-mcbsp.1", "rx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 4) },
	{ "davinci-mcbsp.1", "tx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 5) },
	{ "spi_davinci.0", "rx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 14) },
	{ "spi_davinci.0", "tx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 15) },
	{ "da830-mmc.0", "rx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 16) },
	{ "da830-mmc.0", "tx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 17) },
	{ "spi_davinci.1", "rx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 18) },
	{ "spi_davinci.1", "tx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(0, 19) },
};

static const struct dma_slave_map da850_edma1_map[] = {
	{ "da830-mmc.1", "rx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(1, 28) },
	{ "da830-mmc.1", "tx", EDMA_FILTER_PARAM(1, 29) },
};

and in the DMA driver:
	ecc->dma_slave.filter.map = info->slave_map;
	ecc->dma_slave.filter.mapcnt = info->slavecnt;
	ecc->dma_slave.filter.fn = edma_filter_fn;

When I added the dma_slave_map support it was done in a way that it
could be used by anyone having the same issue as we were facing with
legacy daVinci and OMAP1 boards (no DT support in sight).

Drivers do not need to care about legacy/DT boot.
