[PATCH v6 2/2] rust: add dma coherent allocator abstraction.

From: Abdiel Janulgue
Date: Thu Dec 05 2024 - 06:33:11 EST


Add a simple dma coherent allocator rust abstraction. Based on
Andreas Hindborg's dma abstractions from the rnvme driver, which
was also based on earlier work by Wedson Almeida Filho.

+/// large consistent DMA regions.

+/// A [`CoherentAllocation`] instance contains a pointer to the allocated region (in the
+/// processor's virtual address space) and the device address which can be given to the device
+/// as the DMA address base of the region. The region is released once [`CoherentAllocation`]
+/// is dropped.

+/// For the lifetime of an instance of [`CoherentAllocation`], the cpu address is a valid pointer
+/// to an allocated region of consistent memory and we hold a reference to the device.
