Use a dedicated "mmio-sram" and the genpool allocator instead of
open-coding SRAM allocation for DMA rings.
Keep support for legacy device trees but notify the user via a
warning to update.

Hi Daniel,

Rather than returning, should this
jump to err_destroy_sgmii to avoid leaking resources?

Flagged by Smatch.
