Yeah, I know. As I wrote, this patchset breaks IA64.

I really merge to swiotlb's two memory allocator mechanisms
(swiotlb_init_with_default_size and
swiotlb_late_init_with_default_size). I need to look at the x86 memory
boot code after memblock surgery finishes.

And as you know, I've not fixed the error path and swiotlb_free. I'll
do later if people are not against swiotlb dynamic allocation.

Thanks,
