Overall, the change seems good to me. My sole thought on the API was
whether the actual attribute should be passed, rather than having a
couple of new BUS_DMA_ flags but you've addressed that in a followup.
One change is that previously allocated memory was all charged to
M_DEVBUF via the malloc_type_allocated() call in contigmalloc()
whereas now only small allocations are counted. This would seem to
indicate that large bus_dmamem_alloc() allocations won't be visible in
(eg) "vmstat -m".
