[PATCH v3 1/2] dma-direct: provide the ability to reserve per-numa CMA

This is useful for at least two scenarios:
1. ARM64 smmu will get memory from local numa node, it can save its
command queues and page tables locally. Tests show it can decrease
dma_unmap latency at lot. For example, without this patch, smmu on
node2 will get memory from node0 by calling dma_alloc_coherent(),
typically, it has to wait for more than 560ns for the completion of
CMD_SYNC in an empty command queue; with this patch, it needs 240ns
only.
2. when we set iommu passthrough, drivers will get memory from CMA,
local memory means much less latency.

-v3:
* move to use page_to_nid() while freeing cma with respect to Robin's
comment, but this will only work after applying my below patch:
"mm/cma.c: use exact_nid true to fix possible per-numa cma leak"
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=159333034726647&w=2
* handle the case count <= 1 more properly according to Robin's
comment;
* add pernuma_cma parameter to support dynamic setting of per-numa
cma size;
ideally we can leverage the CMA_SIZE_MBYTES, CMA_SIZE_PERCENTAGE and
"cma=" kernel parameter and avoid a new paramter separately for per-
numa cma. Practically, it is really too complicated considering the
below problems:
(1) if we leverage the size of default numa for per-numa, we have to
avoid creating two cma with same size in node0 since default cma is
probably on node0.
(2) default cma can consider the address limitation for old devices
while per-numa cma doesn't support GFP_DMA and GFP_DMA32. all
allocations with limitation flags will fallback to default one.
(3) hard to apply CMA_SIZE_PERCENTAGE to per-numa. it is hard to
decide if the percentage should apply to the whole memory size
or only apply to the memory size of a specific numa node.
(4) default cma size has CMA_SIZE_SEL_MIN and CMA_SIZE_SEL_MAX, it
makes things even more complicated to per-numa cma.
I haven't figured out a good way to leverage the size of default cma
for per-numa cma. it seems a separate parameter for per-numa could
make life easier.
