The current SWIOTLB code uses a default of 64MB for the IO TLB area. This size can be influenced using a kernel command line parameter "swiotlb". Unfortunately, the parsing of the kernel command line is done _after_ the swiotlb is initialized on some architectures. This patch adds a new function swiotlb_set_default_size() which can be used before swiotlb_init() to indicate the desired IO TLB area size in bytes. This will be used later to implement a smaller IO TLB on the Nintendo Wii video game console which just comes with 24MB + 64MB of RAM.
