It depends how the dma engine gets represented in Linux then: Either
we make the common dmaengine code handle multiple dma-engines with the
same of_node pointer, or you make the driver register a single dma-engine
to Linux that is backed by the three physical devices but just one
of_node pointer. I think either way will work, and someone has to
try it to determine which one is simpler.

Yes, it is.
