What we're getting is private third-party resources for the iommu_domain
given in the argument. It's a get/put rather than alloc/free model since
we operate opaquely on the domain as a container, rather than on the
actual resource in question (an IOVA allocator).

Since this particular use case is slightly different from the normal
flow and has special initialisation requirements, it seemed a lot
cleaner to simply combine that initialisation operation with the
prerequisite "get" into a single call. Especially as it helps emphasise
that this is not 'normal' DMA cookie usage.

It *is* necessary to explicitly reserve the upper part of the IOVA
domain here - the aforementioned "special initialisation" - because
dma_32bit_pfn is only an optimisation hint to prevent the allocator
walking down from the very top of the the tree every time when devices
with different DMA masks share a domain (I'm in two minds as to whether
to tweak the way the iommu-dma code uses it in this respect, now that I
fully understand things). The only actual upper limit to allocation is
the DMA mask passed into each alloc_iova() call, so if we want to ensure
IOVAs are really allocated within this specific region, we have to carve
out everything above it.
