[PATCH 1/2] ALSA: memalloc: Explicit SG-allocations for Xen PV and non-IOMMU systems

[Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>]

For non-IOMMU systems, it makes little sense (or even buggy) to use
dma_alloc_noncontiguous() as an x86 SG-buffer allocation, as it always
results in the big continuous pages instead of SG buffer.  Also, for
Xen PV, this seems also not working well as the pages allocated there
aren't guaranteed to be coherent.

This patch is a first step to address those problems.  It changes the
memalloc helper to go for the explicit SG-page allocations via the
existing fallback allocation primarily for such a platform instead of
dma_alloc_noncontiguous().

Fixes: a8d302a0b770 ("ALSA: memalloc: Revive x86-specific WC page allocations again")
Fixes: 9736a325137b ("ALSA: memalloc: Don't fall back for SG-buffer with IOMMU")
