Some devices (e.g. xHCI USB host controllers) may require the use of large areas of host memory for private use by the device. These allocations cannot be satisfied from iPXE's limited heap space, and so are currently allocated using umalloc() which will allocate external system memory (and alter the system memory map as needed). Provide dma_umalloc() to provide such allocations as part of the DMA API, since there is otherwise no way to guarantee that the allocated regions are usable for coherent DMA.
