Split out all the bits that are purely for dma_map_ops implementations
and related code into a new <linux/dma-map-ops.h> header so that they
don't get pulled into all the drivers. That also means the architecture
specific <asm/dma-mapping.h> is not pulled in by <linux/dma-mapping.h>
any more, which leads to a missing includes that were pulled in by the
x86 or arm versions in a few not overly portable drivers.

This API is the equivalent of alloc_pages, except that the returned memory
is guaranteed to be DMA addressable by the passed in device. The
implementation will also be used to provide a more sensible replacement
for DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT flag.
Additionally dma_alloc_noncoherent is switched over to use dma_alloc_pages
as its backend.

If we want to map memory from the DMA allocator to userspace it must be
zeroed at allocation time to prevent stale data leaks. We already do
this on most common architectures, but some architectures don't do this
yet, fix them up, either by passing GFP_ZERO when we use the normal page
allocator or doing a manual memset otherwise.

Currently the code is split over various files with dma- prefixes in the
lib/ and drives/base directories, and the number of files keeps growing.
Move them into a single directory to keep the code together and remove
the file name prefixes. To match the irq infrastructure this directory
is placed under the kernel/ directory.
