Subject: [PATCH] dma-remap: Use kvmalloc_array/kvfree for larger dma memory
 remap

If dma_direct_alloc() alloc memory in size of 64MB, the inner function
dma_common_contiguous_remap() will allocate 128KB memory by invoking 
the function kmalloc_array(). and the kmalloc_array seems to fail to try to
allocate 128KB mem. work around by doing kvmalloc_array instead.
