If the ring is configured in RING mode, then the ringacc itself will not
access to the ring memory. Only the requester (user) of the ring is going
to read/write to the memory.
Extend the ring configuration parameters with a device pointer to be used
for DMA API when the ring is configured in RING mode.

Extending the ring configuration struct will allow per ring selection of
device to be used for allocation, thus allowing per ring coherency.

To avoid regression, fall back to use the ringacc dev in case the alloc_dev
is not provided.
