This patch lets vb2-dma-contig memory allocator to configure DMA max
segment size properly for the client device. Setting it is needed to let
DMA-mapping subsystem to create a single, contiguous mapping in DMA
address space. This is essential for all devices, which use dma-contig
videobuf2 memory allocator and shared buffers (in USERPTR or DMAbuf modes
of operations).

Hello,

This patch is a follow-up of my previous attempts to let Exynos
multimedia devices to work properly with shared buffers when IOMMU is
enabled:
1. https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg96946.html
2. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/97316
3. https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/30870/

As sugested by Hans, configuring DMA max segment size should be done by
videobuf2-dma-contig module instead of requiring all device drivers to
do it on their own.

Here is some backgroud why this is done in videobuf2-dc not in the
respective generic bus code:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2014-November/305913.html

Best regards,
Marek Szyprowski

changelog:
v4:
- rebased onto media master tree
- call vb2_dc_set_max_seg_size after allocating vb2 buf object

v3:
- added FIXME note about possible memory leak

v2:
- fixes typos and other language issues in the comments

v1: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.samsung-soc/53690

+ * To allow mapping the scatter-list into a single chunk in the DMA
+ * address space, the device is required to have the DMA max segment
+ * size parameter set to a value larger than the buffer size. Otherwise,
+ * the DMA-mapping subsystem will split the mapping into max segment
+ * size chunks. This function increases the DMA max segment size
+ * parameter to let DMA-mapping map a buffer as a single chunk in DMA
+ * address space.
+ * This code assumes that the DMA-mapping subsystem will merge all
+ * scatterlist segments if this is really possible (for example when
+ * an IOMMU is available and enabled).
+ * Ideally, this parameter should be set by the generic bus code, but it
+ * is left with the default 64KiB value due to historical litmiations in
+ * other subsystems (like limited USB host drivers) and there no good
+ * place to set it to the proper value. It is done here to avoid fixing
+ * all the vb2-dc client drivers.
+ *
+ * FIXME: the allocated dma_params structure is leaked because there
+ * is completely no way to determine when to free it (dma_params might have
+ * been also already allocated by the bus code). However in typical
+ * use cases this function will be called for platform devices, which are
