[PATCH 0/3] Allow restricted-dma-pool to customize IO_TLB_SEGSIZE

Default IO_TLB_SEGSIZE (128) slabs may be not enough for some use cases.
This series adds support to customize io_tlb_segsize for each
restricted-dma-pool.

Example use case:

mtk-isp drivers[1] are controlled by mtk-scp[2] and allocate memory through
mtk-scp. In order to use the noncontiguous DMA API[3], we need to use
the swiotlb pool. mtk-scp needs to allocate memory with 2560 slabs.
mtk-isp drivers also needs to allocate memory with 200+ slabs. Both are
larger than the default IO_TLB_SEGSIZE (128) slabs.
