[POWERPC] Use 4kB iommu pages even on 64kB-page systems
The 10Gigabit ethernet device drivers appear to be able to chew up all 256MB of TCE mappings on pSeries systems, as evidenced by numerous error messages: iommu_alloc failed, tbl c0000000010d5c48 vaddr c0000000d875eff0 npages 1 Some experimentation indicates that this is essentially because one 1500 byte ethernet MTU gets mapped as a 64K DMA region when the large 64K pages are enabled. Thus, it doesn't take much to exhaust all of the available DMA mappings for a high-speed card. This patch changes the iommu allocator to work with its own unique, distinct page size. Although the patch is long, its actually quite simple: it just #defines a distinct IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE and then uses this in all the places that matter. As a side effect, it also dramatically improves network performance on platforms with H-calls on iommu translation inserts/removes (since we no longer call it 16 times for a 1500 bytes packet when the iommu HW is still 4k). In the future, we might want to make the IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE a variable in the iommu_table instance, thus allowing support for different HW page sizes in the iommu itself.
