Add the ability for a heap to free buffers asynchrounously. Freed buffers
are placed on a free list and freed from a low priority background thread.
If allocations from a particular heap fail, the free list is drained. This
patch also enable asynchronous frees from the chunk heap.

Currently ion can only share buffers with dma buf fd's. Fd's can not be
used inside the kernel as they are process specific so support for
sharing buffers with dma buf kernel handles is needed to support kernel
only use cases. An example use case could be a GPU driver using ion
that wants to share its output buffers with a 3d party display
controller driver supporting dma buf.

The heapmask in the client generally wasn't being used. This

There is some confusion between when to use the heap type and when
the id. This patch clarifies this by using clearer variable names
and describing the intention in the comments. Also fixes the client
debug code to print heaps by id instead of type.

This patch adds support for a chunk heap that allows for buffers that are
made up of a list of fixed size chunks taken from a carveout. Chunk sizes
are configured when the heaps are created by passing the chunk size in the
priv field of the heap platform data.

We have found that faulting in the mappings for cached
allocations has a significant performance impact and is
only a benefit if only a small part of the buffer is
touched by the cpu (an uncommon case for software rendering).
This patch introduces a ION_FLAG_CACHED_NEEDS_SYNC
which determines whether a mapping should be created by
faulting or at mmap time. If this flag is set,
userspace must manage the caches explictly using the SYNC ioctl.

This is deprecated in favor of using the dma_buf api which will
automatically sync a buffer to memory when it is mapped to a device.
However, that functionality is not ready, so this patch adds the
ability to sync a buffer explicitly.

This patch adds cache maintenance operations to ion. As per mailing
list discussions regarding dma_buf, cache operations are done implicitly.
At buffer allocaiton time the user can select whether he'd like mappings
(both kernel and user) to be cached. When cached mappings are selected,
no mappings will be created for a buffer at mmap time. Instead pages will
be faulted in one at a time so we can track which pages require flushing
before dma. When the buffers are mapped for dma (via the dma_buf apis)
any pages which were touched will be synced for device.

Ion now uses dma-buf file descriptors to share
buffers with userspace. Ion becomes a dma-buf
exporter and any driver that can import dma-bufs
can now import ion file descriptors.
