Change function __iommu_dma_alloc_pages() to allocate pages for DMA from
respective device NUMA node. The ternary operator which would be for
alloc_pages_node() is tidied along with this.
The motivation for this change is to have a policy for page allocation
consistent with direct DMA mapping, which attempts to allocate pages local
to the device, as mentioned in [1].
In addition, for certain workloads it has been observed a marginal
performance improvement. The patch caused an observation of 0.9% average
throughput improvement for running tcrypt with HiSilicon crypto engine.
We also include a modification to use kvzalloc() for kzalloc()/vzalloc()
combination.
