Instead a getting one common device "/dev/ion" for
all the heaps this patch allow to create one device
entry ("/dev/ionX") per heap.
Getting an entry per heap could allow to set security rules
per heap and global ones for all heaps.

Allocation requests will be only allowed if the mask_id
match with device minor.
Query request could be done on any of the devices.
Deivce node major will also change and that may impact init scripts.

version 3:
- change ion_device_add_heap prototype to return a possible error

version 2:
- simplify ioctl check like propose by Dan
- make sure that we don't register more than ION_DEV_MAX heaps

We should start Cc linux-api for future changes since we're going
to have more than just /dev/ion.

Thinking about this some more, I think we need to allow backwards
compatibility. It's just not feasible to keep throwing workarounds
into userspace if we can avoid it. I'd propose keeping the old /dev/ion
misc interface available under a Kconfig and then creating the new
split heaps in parallel.

On a somewhat related note, there was some interest in possibly
having a sysfs interface for Ion long term. I don't think this
needs to happen right now but I'd like whatever we do to not
make adding that harder.

Thanks,
Laura

I wasn't thinking of sysfs for allocation, this was for exposure of
other Ion information that might make more sense than debugfs. Like
I said, this was mostly forward thinking to make sure we aren't
stuck later.

Thanks,
Laura

  - Add dt-bindings for remaining heaps (chunk and carveout heaps). This would
    involve putting appropriate bindings in a memory node for Ion to find.
- - Split /dev/ion up into multiple nodes (e.g. /dev/ion/heap0)
  - Better test framework (integration with VGEM was suggested)
