Dynamic DMA Window (DDW) supports TCEs that are backed by 2MB page size.
In most configurations, DDW is big enough to pre-map all of LPAR memory
for IO. Pre-mapping of memory for DMA results in improvements in IO
performance.

Persistent memory, vPMEM, can be assigned to an LPAR as well. vPMEM is not
contiguous with LPAR memory and usually is assigned at high memory
addresses.  This makes is not possible to pre-map both vPMEM and LPAR
memory in the same DDW.

Applied to powerpc/next.
