swiotlb: Return physical addresses when calling swiotlb_tbl_map_single
This change makes it so that swiotlb_tbl_map_single will return a physical address instead of a virtual address when called. The advantage to this once again is that we are avoiding a number of virt_to_phys and phys_to_virt translations by working with everything as a physical address. One change I had to make in order to support using physical addresses is that I could no longer trust 0 to be a invalid physical address on all platforms. So instead I made it so that ~0 is returned on error. This should never be a valid return value as it implies that only one byte would be available for use. In order to clarify things since we now have 2 physical addresses in use inside of swiotlb_tbl_map_single I am renaming phys to orig_addr, and dma_addr to tlb_addr. This way is should be clear that orig_addr is contained within io_orig_addr and tlb_addr is an address within the io_tlb_addr buffer.
