Document devicetree binding for chunk cma heap on dma heap framework.

The DMA chunk heap supports the bulk allocation of higher order pages.

The chunk heap's allocator allocates from the CMA area. It is optimized
to perform bulk allocation of higher order pages in an efficient manner.
For this purpose, the heap needs an exclusive CMA area that will only be
used for allocation by the heap. This is the reason why we need to use
the DT to create and configure a reserved memory region for use by the
chunk CMA heap driver. Since all allocation from DMA-BUF heaps happen
from the user-space, there is no other appropriate device-driver that
we can use to register the chunk CMA heap and configure the reserved
memory region for its use.
