4009793e15 drivers: cma: represent physical addresses as phys_addr_t
This commit changes the CMA early initialization code to use phys_addr_t
for representing physical addresses instead of unsigned long.

Without this change, among other things, dma_declare_contiguous() simply
discards any memory regions whose address is not representable as unsigned
long.

This is a problem on 32-bit PAE machines where unsigned long is 32-bit
but physical address space is larger.

Use the definition from linux/sizes.h instead.

bdd43cb39f drivers: dma-contiguous: refactor dma_alloc_from_contiguous()
The dma_alloc_from_contiguous() function returns either a valid pointer
to a page structure or NULL, the error code set when pageno >= cma->count
is not used at all and can be safely removed.

This commit also changes the function to avoid goto and have only one exit
path and one place where mutex is unlocked.

7ce9bf1f47 mm: cma: fix alignment requirements for contiguous regions
Contiguous Memory Allocator requires each of its regions to be aligned
in such a way that it is possible to change migration type for all
pageblocks holding it and then isolate page of largest possible order from
the buddy allocator (which is MAX_ORDER-1). This patch relaxes alignment
requirements by one order, because MAX_ORDER alignment is not really
needed.

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.
