Subject: [PATCH v2] mm/dmapool.c: avoid duplicate memset within dma_pool_alloc

From: Liu Song <liusong@...ux.alibaba.com>

In "dma_alloc_from_dev_coherent" and "dma_direct_alloc",
the allocated memory is explicitly set to 0.

A helper function "use_dev_coherent_memory" is introduced here to
determine whether the memory is allocated by "dma_alloc_from_dev_coherent".

And use "get_dma_ops" to determine whether the memory is allocated by
"dma_direct_alloc".

After this modification, memory allocated using "dma_pool_zalloc" can avoid
duplicate memset.
