[PATCH v8 0/5] DMA-BUF Heaps (destaging ION)

Here is yet another pass at the dma-buf heaps patchset Andrew
and I have been working on which tries to destage a fair chunk
of ION functionality.

The patchset implements per-heap devices which can be opened
directly and then an ioctl is used to allocate a dmabuf from the
heap.

The interface is similar, but much simpler then IONs, only
providing an ALLOC ioctl.

Also, I've provided relatively simple system and cma heaps.

I've booted and tested these patches with AOSP on the HiKey960
using the kernel tree here:
  https://git.linaro.org/people/john.stultz/android-dev.git/log/?h=dev/dma-buf-heap

And the userspace changes here:
  https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/device/linaro/hikey/+/909436

Compared to ION, this patchset is missing the system-contig,
carveout and chunk heaps, as I don't have a device that uses
those, so I'm unable to do much useful validation there.
Additionally we have no upstream users of chunk or carveout,
and the system-contig has been deprecated in the common/andoid-*
kernels, so this should be ok.

I've also removed the stats accounting, since any such accounting
should be implemented by dma-buf core or the heaps themselves.

Most of the changes in this revision are adddressing the more
concrete feedback from Christoph (many thanks!). Though I'm not
sure if some of the less specific feedback was completely resolved
in discussion last time around. Please let me know!

New in v8:
* Make struct dma_heap_ops consts (Suggested by Christoph)
* Add flush_kernel_vmap_range/invalidate_kernel_vmap_range calls
  (suggested by Christoph)
* Condense dma_heap_buffer and heap_helper_buffer (suggested by
  Christoph)
* Get rid of needless struct system_heap (suggested by Christoph)
* Fix indentation by using shorter argument names (suggested by
  Christoph)
* Remove unused private_flags value
* Add forgotten include file to fix build issue on x86
* Checkpatch whitespace fixups

Thoughts and feedback would be greatly appreciated!

thanks
