For devices which have constraints about maximum number of segments in
an sglist. For example, a device which could only deal with contiguous
buffers would set max_segment_count to 1.
The initial motivation is for devices sharing buffers via dma-buf,
to allow the buffer exporter to know the constraints of other
devices which have attached to the buffer. The dma_mask and fields
in 'struct device_dma_parameters' tell the exporter everything else
that is needed, except whether the importer has constraints about
maximum number of segments.

This feature is definitely needed to start thinking of real buffer
sharing between devices.

v3: include Robin Murphy's fix[1] for handling '0' as a value for
max_segment_count
v2: minor updates wrt comments on the first version
