The single atomic pool is allocated from the lowest zone possible since it is guaranteed to be applicable for any DMA allocation. Devices may allocate through the DMA API but not have a strict reliance on GFP_DMA memory. Since the atomic pool will be used for all non-blockable allocations, returning all memory from ZONE_DMA may unnecessarily deplete the zone. Provision for multiple atomic pools that will map to the optimal gfp mask of the device. When allocating non-blockable memory, determine the optimal gfp mask of the device and use the appropriate atomic pool. The coherent DMA mask will remain the same between allocation and free and, thus, memory will be freed to the same atomic pool it was allocated from. __dma_atomic_pool_init() will be changed to return struct gen_pool * later once dynamic expansion is added.
