Subject: x86: allow CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API to be disabled
From: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx>

Not all 64-bit systems require ISA-style DMA, so allow it to be
configurable.  x86 utilizes the generic ISA DMA allocator from
kernel/dma.c, so require it only when CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API is enabled.

Disabling CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API is dependent on x86_64 since those machines
do not have ISA slots and benefit the most from disabling the option (and
on CONFIG_EXPERT as required by H.  Peter Anvin).

When disabled, this also avoids declaring claim_dma_lock(),
release_dma_lock(), request_dma(), and free_dma() since those interfaces
will no longer be provided.
