dma-debug: change hash_bucket_find from first-fit to best-fit
Some device drivers map the same physical address multiple times to a dma address. Without an IOMMU this results in the same dma address being put into the dma-debug hash multiple times. With a first-fit match in hash_bucket_find() this function may return the wrong dma_debug_entry. This can result in false positive warnings. This patch fixes it by changing the first-fit behavior of hash_bucket_find() into a best-fit algorithm.
