This patch is just about moving the code between the files and I wanted just
to show what's being changed and how. There is a final cleanup anyway in the
separate patch. All these patches are meant to start the discussion about
the way the dma mapping can be redesigned for further extensions with generic
iommu support.

The above lines will be removed by the next patches in this series, so I
really see no point in changing this.
