Zubair Lutfullah Kakakhel 02d31c7de1 asm-generic: Add dma-contiguous.h
This header is used by arm64 and x86 individually.

Adding to asm-generic to avoid further code repetition while adding cma
to mips.

Marek Szyprowski a254738039 drivers: dma-contiguous: clean source code and prepare for device tree
This patch cleans the initialization of dma contiguous framework. The
all-in-one dma_declare_contiguous() function is now separated into
dma_contiguous_reserve_area() which only steals the the memory from
memblock allocator and dma_contiguous_add_device() function, which
assigns given device to the specified reserved memory area. This improves
the flexibility in defining contiguous memory areas and assigning device
to them, because now it is possible to assign more than one device to
the given contiguous memory area. Such split in initialization procedure
is also required for upcoming device tree support.

Marek Szyprowski cc2caea5b6 mm: cma: fix condition check when setting global cma area
dev_set_cma_area incorrectly assigned cma to global area on first call
due to incorrect check. This patch fixes this issue.

Marek Szyprowski c64be2bb1c drivers: add Contiguous Memory Allocator
The Contiguous Memory Allocator is a set of helper functions for DMA
mapping framework that improves allocations of contiguous memory chunks.

CMA grabs memory on system boot, marks it with MIGRATE_CMA migrate type
and gives back to the system. Kernel is allowed to allocate only movable
pages within CMA's managed memory so that it can be used for example for
page cache when DMA mapping do not use it. On
dma_alloc_from_contiguous() request such pages are migrated out of CMA
area to free required contiguous block and fulfill the request. This
allows to allocate large contiguous chunks of memory at any time
assuming that there is enough free memory available in the system.

This code is heavily based on earlier works by Michal Nazarewicz.
