Christoph Hellwig efa70f2fdc dma-mapping: add a new dma_alloc_pages API
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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
