Add the functions, swiotlb_{alloc,free} and is_swiotlb_for_alloc to
support the memory allocation from restricted DMA pool.
The restricted DMA pool is preferred if available.
Note that since coherent allocation needs remapping, one must set up
another device coherent pool by shared-dma-pool and use
dma_alloc_from_dev_coherent instead for atomic coherent allocation.

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.
