queue_api: add support for fetching per queue DMA dev
For zerocopy (io_uring, devmem), there is an assumption that the parent device can do DMA. However that is not always the case: - Scalable Function netdevs [1] have the DMA device in the grandparent. - For Multi-PF netdevs [2] queues can be associated to different DMA devices. This patch introduces the a queue based interface for allowing drivers to expose a different DMA device for zerocopy.
