This series of patches will speed up memory allocation in dma-mapping quite a bit.
This is pretty much all ARM and driver stuff so I think I'll duck it. But I can merge it if nobody else feels a need to. I saw a few acked-by/tested-by/etc from the v5 posting which weren't carried over into v6 (might have been a timing race), so please fix that up if there's an opportunity. Regarding the new DMA_ATTR_ALLOC_SINGLE_PAGES hint: I suggest adding "DMA_ATTR_ALLOC_SINGLE_PAGES is presently implemented only on ARM" to the docs. Or perhaps have a shot at implementing it elsewhere. Typo in 4/5 changelog: "reqiurements"
