early_cma does not check input argument before passing it to
simple_strtoull. The argument would be a NULL pointer if "cma", without
its value, is set in command line and thus causes the following panic.

This patch adds a check to prevent the panic.

<title>kernel/dma: remove unsupported gfp_mask parameter from dma_alloc_from_contiguous()</title>

The CMA memory allocator doesn't support standard gfp flags for memory
allocation, so there is no point having it as a parameter for
dma_alloc_from_contiguous() function.  Replace it by a boolean no_warn
argument, which covers all the underlaying cma_alloc() function
supports.

This will help to avoid giving false feeling that this function supports
standard gfp flags and callers can pass __GFP_ZERO to get zeroed buffer,
what has already been an issue: see commit dd65a941f6ba ("arm64:
dma-mapping: clear buffers allocated with FORCE_CONTIGUOUS flag").

cma_alloc() doesn't really support gfp flags other than __GFP_NOWARN, so
convert gfp_mask parameter to boolean no_warn parameter.

This will help to avoid giving false feeling that this function supports
standard gfp flags and callers can pass __GFP_ZERO to get zeroed buffer,
what has already been an issue: see commit dd65a941f6ba ("arm64:
dma-mapping: clear buffers allocated with FORCE_CONTIGUOUS flag").

<title>dma-mapping: move all DMA mapping code to kernel/dma</title>

Currently the code is split over various files with dma- prefixes in the
lib/ and drives/base directories, and the number of files keeps growing.
Move them into a single directory to keep the code together and remove
the file name prefixes.  To match the irq infrastructure this directory
is placed under the kernel/ directory.
