[RFC PATCH v2 0/7] dmaengine: enhance dmaengine to support DMA device hotplug

This patch set enhances the dmaengine core and its clients to support
hot-removal of DMA devices at runtime, especially for IOAT devices.

Intel IOAT (Crystal Beach) devices are often built into PCIe root complex.
When hot-plugging a PCI root complex (IOH) on Intel Nehalem/Westmere
platforms, all IOAT devices built in the IOH must be handled first.
For future Intel processors with Integrated IOH (IIO), IOAT device will
get involved even when hot-plugging physical processors.

The dmaengine core already supports hot-add of IOAT devices, but hot-removal
of IOAT devices is still unsupported due to a design limiation in the
dmaengine core.

Currently dmaengine has an assumption that DMA devices could only be
deregistered when there's no any clients making use of DMA devices.
So dma_async_device_unregister() is designed to be called by DMA device
driver's module_exit routines only. But the ioatdma driver doesn't
conform to that rule, it calls dma_async_device_unregister() from its
driver detaching routine instead of module_exit routine.

This patch set enhances the dmaengine core to support DMA device hotplug,
so that dma_async_device_unregister() could be called by DMA driver's
detach routines to hot-remove DMA devices at runtime. It also tries
to optimize DMA channel allocation policy according to NUMA affinity.

v2: use percpu counter for channel reference count to avoid polluting
    global shared cachelines
