I think that no other IOMMUs take over it on ARM64 system, except Xen.

I focus on ARM64 system which uses swiotlb as default DMA ops.

If some ARM64 platforms would like to use memory only from
__get_free_pages in swiotlb_alloc_coherent function, an
interface would be needed to configure reserved memory size.

Thus, I add it to kernel command line handler.
