[PATCH v7 8/8] swiotlb: Make IO_TLB_SEGSIZE configurable

From: Li Hua Qian <huaqian.li at siemens.com>

In some applications, the default value of 128 is not sufficient for
memory allocation and can cause runtime errors. This change makes
IO_TLB_SEGSIZE configurable, allowing it to be increased if needed.
