swiotlb: reduce the number of areas to match actual memory pool size

Although the desired size of the SWIOTLB memory pool is increased in
swiotlb_adjust_nareas() to match the number of areas, the actual allocation
may be smaller, which may require reducing the number of areas.

For example, Xen uses swiotlb_init_late(), which in turn uses the page
allocator. On x86, page size is 4 KiB and MAX_ORDER is 10 (1024 pages),
resulting in a maximum memory pool size of 4 MiB. This corresponds to 2048
slots of 2 KiB each. The minimum area size is 128 (IO_TLB_SEGSIZE),
allowing at most 2048 / 128 = 16 areas.

If num_possible_cpus() is greater than the maximum number of areas, areas
are smaller than IO_TLB_SEGSIZE and contiguous groups of free slots will
span multiple areas. When allocating and freeing slots, only one area will
be properly locked, causing race conditions on the unlocked slots and
ultimately data corruption, kernel hangs and crashes.
