Neither CMA nor noncoherent allocations support atomic allocations.
Add a dedicated atomic pool to support this.

v2: Various bug fixes pointed out by David and Ritesh (CMA dependency, swapping
coherent, noncoherent). I'm still not sure how to address the devicetree
suggestion by Will [1][2]. I added the devicetree mailing list this time around
to get more input on this.

Perhaps that can be done later then, since from what you're saying, we need
the command-line option either way? Have you looked at how this fits in with
the iommu-helper work from Ritesh? We could put the parameter parsing in
there too.
