Yes. In fact, (if I remember correctly) you can process concurrent I/O
requests, so long as any ONE request doesn’t exceed the maximum map
registers value returned by IoGetDmaAdapter().

Yes.

Aside: IoGetScatterGatherList is HIGHLY preferable to
IoAllocateAdapterChannel() for almost every use, for a ton of reasons. It’s
one limitation is that it is not available on any Win9x platform (and yes,
that means it’s not on Windows ME). It’s a WDM V1.1 function only.
