dma-debug: Batch dma_debug_entry allocation
DMA debug entries are one of those things which aren't that useful
individually - we will always want some larger quantity of them - and
which we don't really need to manage the exact number of - we only care
about having 'enough'. In that regard, the current behaviour of creating
them one-by-one leads to a lot of unwarranted function call overhead and
memory wasted on alignment padding.
Now that we don't have to worry about freeing anything via
dma_debug_resize_entries(), we can optimise the allocation behaviour by
grabbing whole pages at once, which will save considerably on the
aforementioned overheads, and probably offer a little more cache/TLB
locality benefit for traversing the lists under normal operation. This
should also give even less reason for an architecture-level override of
the preallocation size, so make the definition unconditional - if there
is still any desire to change the compile-time value for some platforms
it would be better off as a Kconfig option anyway.
Since freeing a whole page of entries at once becomes enough of a
challenge that it's not really worth complicating dma_debug_init(), we
may as well tweak the preallocation behaviour such that as long as we
manage to allocate *some* pages, we can leave debugging enabled on a
best-effort basis rather than otherwise wasting them.
