<title>memblock: make memblock_find_in_range method private</title>

There are a lot of uses of memblock_find_in_range() along with
memblock_reserve() from the times memblock allocation APIs did not exist.

memblock_find_in_range() is the very core of memblock allocations, so any
future changes to its internal behaviour would mandate updates of all the
users outside memblock.

Replace the calls to memblock_find_in_range() with an equivalent calls to
memblock_phys_alloc() and memblock_phys_alloc_range() and make
memblock_find_in_range() private method of memblock.

This simplifies the callers, ensures that (unlikely) errors in
memblock_reserve() are handled and improves maintainability of
memblock_find_in_range().

Lift the dma_default_coherent variable from the mips architecture code
to the driver core.  This allows an architecture to sdefault all device
to be DMA coherent at run time, even if the kernel is build with support
for DMA noncoherent device.  By allowing device_initialize to set the
-&gt;dma_coherent field to this default the amount of arch hooks required
for this behavior can be greatly reduced.

<content type='text'>
This reverts commit 3751cbda8f223549d7ea28803cbec8ac87e43ed2.

Originally the patch was created to fix the reserved-memory DT-node
parsing failure on the early stages of the platform memory initialization.
That happened due to the two early memory allocators utilization that
time: bootmem and memblock. At first the platform-specific memory mapping
array was initialized. Then the early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem() was
called, which couldn't fully parse the "reserved-memory" DT-node since
neither memblock nor bootmem allocators hadn't been initialized at that
stage, so the fdt_init_reserved_mem() method failed on the memory
allocation calls. Only after that the platform-specific memory mapping
were used to create proper bootmem and memblock structures and let the
early memory allocations work.  That's why we had to call the
fdt_init_reserved_mem() method one more time to retry the initialization
of the features like CMA.

The necessity to have that fix was disappeared after the full memblock
support had been added to the MIPS kernel and all plat_mem_setup() had
been fixed to add the memory regions right into the memblock memory pool.
Let's revert that patch then especially after having Paul reported that
the second fdt_init_reserved_mem() call causes the reserved memory pool
being created twice bigger than implied.
