You are walking channels that the consumer should not even know about
here.

I think you can establish the same easily enough from the channels it
does know about.  It would be fiddly if you had lots of channels (as
you might be best off sorting them) but for small numbers of channels
loop over the array to find lowest scan_index - compute offset due
to that then move on to next one etc until you reach the scan index
of the channel you want.
