calgary iommu: use the first kernels TCE tables in kdump

kdump kernel fails to boot with calgary iommu and aacraid driver on a x366
box.  The ongoing dma's of aacraid from the first kernel continue to exist
until the driver is loaded in the kdump kernel.  Calgary is initialized
prior to aacraid and creation of new tce tables causes wrong dma's to
occur.  Here we try to get the tce tables of the first kernel in kdump
kernel and use them.  While in the kdump kernel we do not allocate new tce
tables but instead read the base address register contents of calgary
iommu and use the tables that the registers point to.  With these changes
the kdump kernel and hence aacraid now boots normally.
