dma: add dma_*map*_attrs() interfaces
Introduce new interfaces, dma_*map*_attrs(), for passing architecture-specific attributes when memory is mapped and unmapped for DMA. Give the interfaces default implementations which ignore attributes. Also introduce the dma_{set|get}_attr() interfaces for setting and retrieving individual attributes. Define one attribute, DMA_ATTR_WRITE_BARRIER, in anticipation of its use by ia64/sn. Select whether architectures implement arch-specific versions of the dma_*map*_attrs() interfaces via HAVE_DMA_ATTRS in Kconfig.
