lib/genalloc: introduce chunk owners The p2pdma facility enables a provider to publish a pool of dma addresses for a consumer to allocate. A genpool is used internally by p2pdma to collect dma resources, 'chunks', to be handed out to consumers. Whenever a consumer allocates a resource it needs to pin the 'struct dev_pagemap' instance that backs the chunk selected by pci_alloc_p2pmem(). Currently that reference is taken globally on the entire provider device. That sets up a lifetime mismatch whereby the p2pdma core needs to maintain hacks to make sure the percpu_ref is not released twice. This lifetime mismatch also stands in the way of a fix to devm_memremap_pages() whereby devm_memremap_pages_release() must wait for the percpu_ref ->release() callback to complete before it can proceed to teardown pages. So, towards fixing this situation, introduce the ability to store a 'chunk owner' at gen_pool_add() time, and a facility to retrieve the owner at gen_pool_{alloc,free}() time. For p2pdma this will be used to store and recall individual dev_pagemap reference counter instances per-chunk.
