Developers trying to debug some other driver on such a system may not be immediately aware of this, and at worst it can hide bugs if they fail to realise that dma-debug has already disabled itself unexpectedly by the time their code of interest gets to run. Even once they do realise, it can be a bit of a pain to emprirically determine a suitable number of preallocated entries to configure, short of massively over-allocating. There's really no need for such a static limit, though, since we can quite easily expand the pool at runtime in those rare cases that the preallocated entries are insufficient, which is arguably the least surprising and most useful behaviour. To that end, refactor the prealloc_memory() logic a little bit to generalise it for runtime reallocations as well.
