Direct Cache Access (DCA) is a method for warming the CPU cache before data
is used, with the intent of lessening the impact of cache misses.  This
patch adds a manager and interface for matching up client requests for DCA
services with devices that offer DCA services.

In order to use DCA, a module must do bus writes with the appropriate tag
bits set to trigger a cache read for a specific CPU.  However, different
CPUs and chipsets can require different sets of tag bits, and the methods
for determining the correct bits may be simple hardcoding or may be a
hardware specific magic incantation.  This interface is a way for DCA
clients to find the correct tag bits for the targeted CPU without needing
to know the specifics.

    [Dave Miller] use DEFINE_SPINLOCK()
