[PATCH v9 1/5] dma: Introduce dma_get_merge_boundary()

[Yoshihiro Shimoda <yoshihiro.shimoda.uh@renesas.com>]

This patch adds a new DMA API "dma_get_merge_boundary". This function
returns the DMA merge boundary if the DMA layer can merge the segments.
This patch also adds the implementation for a new dma_map_ops pointer.
