There will likely be no fix since the quest is unimportant and does not affect the story in any way. Those side quests only gain you influence and power, and the only impact not finishing them has is that you can't clear them out of the journal. So it is extremely low priority for Bioware to implement a fix for it. This can happen with numerous versions of this quest, so if you do more of these requisitions, always do them first in a region or you can be locked out of finishing them.
The only real fly in the ointment is that if you don't complete a requisition you get in a specific region (in this case, the Hinterlands), you won't get any more, ever. Now some would view this as a feature, not a bug, but it can be...problematic.
Incidentally i got to do the cages req twice in my current game, as they've added some Fereldan locks to the Templars you need to fight near the final destination in the Two Brothers subquest. Prior to this they had only been dropped by the Templars you first encounter when you go to the Crossroads. At first I was somewhat annoyed as the Crossroads Templars only dropped four (!) Fereldan locks, but later I got six more from the others...I think there are a couple you can loot from houses as well.
