iommu/dma: Use NUMA aware memory allocations in __iommu_dma_alloc_pages()
commit c4b17afb0a4e8d042320efaf2acf55cb26795f78 upstream. Change function __iommu_dma_alloc_pages() to allocate pages for DMA from respective device NUMA node. The ternary operator which would be for alloc_pages_node() is tidied along with this. The motivation for this change is to have a policy for page allocation consistent with direct DMA mapping, which attempts to allocate pages local to the device, as mentioned in [1]. In addition, for certain workloads it has been observed a marginal performance improvement. The patch caused an observation of 0.9% average throughput improvement for running tcrypt with HiSilicon crypto engine. We also include a modification to use kvzalloc() for kzalloc()/vzalloc() combination.
