Here is alternate version to implement default DMA coherent pool, that
we use in our custom kernel since 2015.

Unlike to Vladimir Murzin's patch [1] "drivers: dma-coherent: Introduce
default DMA pool" this variant stores pointer to "rmem->priv" pointer
and thus it does not need additional function (dma_init_reserved_memory)
to explicitly call device_init (=rmem_dma_device_init) to get valid
address in "rmem->priv".

Default DMA pool attribute for memory region is being provided from
a device tree file.

Patch 2/2 adds 'dmainfo' to ProcFS to show available DMA regions.

The patchset is based on driver-core-next branch.
