Can also just be "See also Documentation/mm/page_reclaim.rst". The right things will happen in the HTML output, readers of the plain-text will know immediately where to go, and we don't have to add the label clutter.
Remove reference markup and unnecessary labes and use plain file names.

dma-mapping: add dma_opt_mapping_size()
Streaming DMA mapping involving an IOMMU may be much slower for larger total mapping size. This is because every IOMMU DMA mapping requires an IOVA to be allocated and freed. IOVA sizes above a certain limit are not cached, which can have a big impact on DMA mapping performance.
Provide an API for device drivers to know this "optimal" limit, such that they may try to produce mapping which don't exceed it.

dma-mapping: add a dma_alloc_noncontiguous API
Add a new API that returns a potentiall virtually non-contigous sg_table and a DMA address. This API is only properly implemented for dma-iommu and will simply return a contigious chunk as a fallback.
The intent is that drivers can use this API if either:
- no kernel mapping or only temporary kernel mappings are required. That is as a better replacement for DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING - a kernel mapping is required for cached and DMA mapped pages, but the driver also needs the pages to e.g. map them to userspace. In that sense it is a replacement for some aspects of the recently removed and never fully implemented DMA_ATTR_NON_CONSISTENT

It turns out allowing non-contigous allocations here was a rather bad idea, as we'll now need to define ways to get the pages for mmaping or dma_buf sharing. Revert this change and stick to the original concept. A different API for the use case of non-contigous allocations will be added back later.

dma-mapping: add a new dma_alloc_noncoherent API
Add a new API to allocate and free memory that is guaranteed to be addressable by a device, but which potentially is not cache coherent for DMA.
To transfer ownership to and from the device, the existing streaming DMA API calls dma_sync_single_for_device and dma_sync_single_for_cpu must be used.
For now the new calls are implemented on top of dma_alloc_attrs just like the old-noncoherent API, but once all drivers are switched to the new API it will be replaced with a better working implementation that is available on all architectures.
