swiotlb: Add restricted DMA pool initialization
Add the initialization function to create restricted DMA pools from
matching reserved-memory nodes.
Regardless of swiotlb setting, the restricted DMA pool is preferred if
available.
The restricted DMA pools provide a basic level of protection against the
DMA overwriting buffer contents at unexpected times. However, to protect
against general data leakage and system memory corruption, the system
needs to provide a way to lock down the memory access, e.g., MPU.
