iommu sg merging: add device_dma_parameters structure 

IOMMUs merges scatter/gather segments without considering a low level
driver's restrictions. The problem is that IOMMUs can't access to the
limitations because they are in request_queue.

This patchset introduces a new structure, device_dma_parameters,
including dma information. A pointer to device_dma_parameters is added
to struct device. The bus specific structures (like pci_dev) includes
device_dma_parameters. Low level drivers can use dma_set_max_seg_size
to tell IOMMUs about the restrictions.

We can move more dma stuff in struct device (like dma_mask) to struct
device_dma_parameters later (needs some cleanups before that).

This includes patches for all the IOMMUs that could merge sg (x86_64,
ppc, IA64, alpha, sparc64, and parisc) though only the ppc patch was
tested. The patches for other IOMMUs are only compile tested.

This patch:

Add a new structure, device_dma_parameters, including dma information.  A
pointer to device_dma_parameters is added to struct device.

- there are only max_segment_size and segment_boundary_mask there but we'll
  move more dma stuff in struct device (like dma_mask) to struct
  device_dma_parameters later.  segment_boundary_mask is not supported yet.

- new accessors for the dma parameters are added.  So we can easily change
  where to place struct device_dma_parameters in the future.

- dma_get_max_seg_size returns 64K if dma_parms in struct device isn't set
  up properly.  64K is the default max_segment_size in the block layer.
