This patch add a complete implementation of DMA-mapping API for
devices which have IOMMU support.
This implementation tries to optimize dma address space usage by remapping
all possible physical memory chunks into a single dma address space chunk.
DMA address space is managed on top of the bitmap stored in the
dma_iommu_mapping structure stored in device->archdata. Platform setup
code has to initialize parameters of the dma address space (base address,
size, allocation precision order) with arm_iommu_create_mapping() function.
To reduce the size of the bitmap, all allocations are aligned to the
specified order of base 4 KiB pages.
dma_alloc_* functions allocate physical memory in chunks, each with
alloc_pages() function to avoid failing if the physical memory gets
fragmented. In worst case the allocated buffer is composed of 4 KiB page
chunks.
dma_map_sg() function minimizes the total number of dma address space
chunks by merging of physical memory chunks into one larger dma address
space chunk. If requested chunk (scatter list entry) boundaries
match physical page boundaries, most calls to dma_map_sg() requests will
result in creating only one chunk in dma address space.
dma_map_page() simply creates a mapping for the given page(s) in the dma
address space.
All dma functions also perform required cache operation like their
counterparts from the arm linear physical memory mapping version.

Add a new seqfile for reporting coherent DMA allocations. This contains
the address range, size and the function which was used to allocate
each region, allowing these allocations to be viewed in much the same
way as /proc/vmallocinfo.
The DMA coherent region has limited space, so this allows allocation
failures to be viewed, as well as finding out how much space is being
used.
Make sure this file is only readable by root - same as vmallocinfo - to
prevent information leakage.

The DMA coherent remap area is used to provide an uncached mapping
of memory for coherency with DMA engines. Currently, we look for
any free hole which our allocation will fit in with page alignment.
However, this can lead to fragmentation of the area, and allows small
allocations to cross L1 entry boundaries. This is undesirable as we
want to move towards allocating sections of memory.
Align allocations according to the size, limiting the alignment between
the page and section sizes.
