This brings the iommu page table allocator into the modern world of having
its own private page descriptor and not re-using fields from struct page
for its own purpose. It follows the basic pattern of struct ptdesc which
did this transformation for the CPU page table allocator.

Currently iommu-pages is pretty basic so this isn't a huge benefit,
however I see a coming need for features that CPU allocator has, like sub
PAGE_SIZE allocations, and RCU freeing. This provides the base
infrastructure to implement those cleanly.

Remove numa_node_id() calls from the inlines and instead use NUMA_NO_NODE
which will get switched to numa_mem_id(), which seems to be the right ID
to use for memory allocations.
