Add a helper function for device drivers to set DMA's max_seg_size.
Setting it to largest possible value lets DMA-mapping API always create
contiguous mappings in DMA address space. This is essential for all
devices, which use dma-contig videobuf2 memory allocator and shared
buffers.

This patch was posted earlier as a part of
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/97316
thread, but applying it is really needed to get all Exynos multimedia
drivers working with IOMMU enabled.

Best regards,

The v3 patch from December uses kzalloc here. Is this perhaps on old version?

Right, my fault. I will do another resend (and fix the typo in the second patch).

Admittedly I haven't looked closely at this, but is this something that you
want for all dma-contig devices? Or to rephrase this question: what type of
devices will need this?

This is needed for all devices using vb2-dc, iommu and user-ptr mode, however
in the previous discussions (see https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/30870/
) it has been suggested to make it via common helper instead of forcing it
in vb2-dc.
