dma: Introduce dma_max_mapping_size()
commit 133d624b1cee16906134e92d5befb843b58bcf31 upstream. The function returns the maximum size that can be mapped using DMA-API functions. The patch also adds the implementation for direct DMA and a new dma_map_ops pointer so that other implementations can expose their limit.
