The io-pgtable code expects to operate on a single block or
granule of memory that is supported by the IOMMU hardware when
unmapping memory.

This means that when a large buffer that consists of multiple
such blocks is unmapped, the io-pgtable code will walk the page
tables to the correct level to unmap each block, even for blocks
that are virtually contiguous and at the same level, which can
incur an overhead in performance.

Introduce the unmap_pages() page table op to express to the
io-pgtable code that it should unmap a number of blocks of
the same size, instead of a single block. Doing so allows
multiple blocks to be unmapped in one call to the io-pgtable
code, reducing the number of page table walks, and indirect
calls.
