Subject: [RFC] [Patch] calgary iommu: Use the first kernel's tce tables in
	kdump

kdump kernel fails to boot with calgary iommu and aacraid driver on a
x366 box.  The ongoing dma's of aacraid from the first kernel continue
to exist until the driver is loaded in the kdump kernel. Calgary is
initialized prior to aacraid and creation of new tce tables causes wrong
dma's to occur. 

Here we try to grab the tce tables of the first kernel in kdump kernel
and use them. While in the kdump kernel we do not allocate new tce
tables but rather read the base address register contents of calgary
iommu and use the tables that the registers point to. With these changes
the kdump kernel and hence aacraid now boots normally. 

Another point that came when talking with Vivek was to reserve part of
the tce table space in first kernel for use in the kdump kernel.
