Introduce a new dma attriblue DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING to use weak ordering
on DMA mappings in the Cell processor. Add the code to the Cell's IOMMU
implementation to use this code.Dynamic mappings can be weakly or strongly ordered on an individual basis
but the fixed mapping has to be either completely strong or completely weak.
This is currently decided by a kernel boot option (pass iommu_fixed=weak
for a weakly ordered fixed linear mapping, strongly ordered is the default).Signed-off-by: Mark Nelson

Introduce new interfaces, dma_*map*_attrs(), for passing architecture-specific
attributes when memory is mapped and unmapped for DMA. Give the interfaces
default implementations which ignore attributes. Also introduce the
dma_{set|get}_attr() interfaces for setting and retrieving individual
attributes. Define one attribute, DMA_ATTR_WRITE_BARRIER, in anticipation of
its use by ia64/sn. Select whether architectures implement arch-specific
versions of the dma_*map*_attrs() interfaces via HAVE_DMA_ATTRS in Kconfig.[markn@au1.ibm.com: dma_{set,get}_attr() have to be static inline]
