This Kconfig option is intended to enable various code paths or
parameters in IOMMU implementations to stress test the code and/or the
hardware. This can also be done by disabling optimizations in the code
when this option is switched on.

<title>x86 gart: reimplement IOMMU_LEAK feature by using DMA_API_DEBUG</title>

<content type='text'>
IOMMU_LEAK, GART's own feature, dumps the used IOMMU entries when
IOMMU entries is full, which might be useful to find a bad driver that
eats IOMMU entries.

DMA_API_DEBUG provides the similar feature, debug_dma_dump_mappings,
and it's better than GART's IOMMU_LEAK feature. GART's IOMMU_LEAK
feature doesn't say who uses IOMMU entries so it's hard to find a bad
driver.

This patch reimplements the GART's IOMMU_LEAK feature by using
DMA_API_DEBUG.

CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is now supported by x86, powerpc, sparc64, and
s390.  This patch implements it for the rest of the architectures by
filling the pages with poison byte patterns after free_pages() and
verifying the poison patterns before alloc_pages().

This generic one cannot detect invalid page accesses immediately but
invalid read access may cause invalid dereference by poisoned memory and
invalid write access can be detected after a long delay.

<title>trace: mmiotrace to the tracer menu in Kconfig</title>

Impact: cosmetic change in Kconfig menu layout

This patch was originally suggested by Peter Zijlstra, but seems it
was forgotten.

CONFIG_MMIOTRACE and CONFIG_MMIOTRACE_TEST were selectable
directly under the Kernel hacking / debugging menu in the kernel
configuration system. They were present only for x86 and x86_64.

Other tracers that use the ftrace tracing framework are in their own
sub-menu. This patch moves the mmiotrace configuration options there.
Since the Kconfig file, where the tracer menu is, is not architecture
specific, HAVE_MMIOTRACE_SUPPORT is introduced and provided only by
x86/x86_64. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE now depends on it.
