These issues could be due to the way you have split up your reconfiguration controller, where the minimum "granularity" is a triplet, or perhaps the channel placement is constrained because you are using CMU PLLs, which can only be placed in CH1 or CH4 of a 6-pack.
I believe that you should check the clock sharing and the data rates that you are targeting within a bank. Please check the PLL sharing guidelines: 1.5. PLL Sharing
