The structure is:
typedef struct {
     MemoryRegion mem;
     DBDMA_channel channels[DBDMA_CHANNELS];
     QEMUBH *bh;
} DBDMAState;

static DBDMAState *dbdma_from_ch(DBDMA_channel *ch)
{
     return container_of(ch, DBDMAState, channels[ch->channel]);
}

Guest can deal with whatever DMA channel it wants (< DBDMA_CHANNELS). Some work will then be done with s->channels["guest_provided_channel"]. Note that DMA channel can be registered to some device, or 
not.

Later, dbdma_from_ch(DBDMA_channel) method is called to get back the DBDMAState structure from the channel. This method uses the ch->channel field. If this field is not initialized (ie is 0), a wrong 
DBDMAState pointer is returned, and memory corruption starts. QEMU crashes later, without any useful hint.

I just tried to register a wrong DMA channel for IDE and start MacOS 9. Without my patch, QEMU crashes. With my patch, MacOS 9 freezes and waits for the DMA transfer to complete, which never happens.

As you want a stack trace, here it is:
