dma-debug: Batch dma_debug_entry allocation

DMA debug entries are one of those things which aren't that useful
individually - we will always want some larger quantity of them - and
which we don't really need to manage the exact number of - we only care
about having 'enough'. In that regard, the current behaviour of creating
them one-by-one leads to a lot of unwarranted function call overhead and
memory wasted on alignment padding.

Now that we don't have to worry about freeing anything via
dma_debug_resize_entries(), we can optimise the allocation behaviour by
grabbing whole pages at once, which will save considerably on the
aforementioned overheads, and probably offer a little more cache/TLB
locality benefit for traversing the lists under normal operation. This
should also give even less reason for an architecture-level override of
the preallocation size, so make the definition unconditional - if there
is still any desire to change the compile-time value for some platforms
it would be better off as a Kconfig option anyway.

Since freeing a whole page of entries at once becomes enough of a
challenge that it's not really worth complicating dma_debug_init(), we
may as well tweak the preallocation behaviour such that as long as we
manage to allocate *some* pages, we can leave debugging enabled on a
best-effort basis rather than otherwise wasting them.

 When the code disables itself at runtime this is most likely because it ran
 out of dma_debug_entries and was unable to allocate more on-demand. 65536
 entries are preallocated at boot - if this is too low for you boot with
-'dma_debug_entries=<your_desired_number>' to overwrite the default. The
+'dma_debug_entries=<your_desired_number>' to overwrite the default. Note
+that the code allocates entries in batches, so the exact number of
+preallocated entries may be greater than the actual number requested. The
 code will print to the kernel log each time it has dynamically allocated
 as many entries as were initially preallocated. This is to indicate that a
 larger preallocation size may be appropriate, or if it happens continually
