mem: add function to check if memory is contiguous
For now, memory is always contiguous because legacy mem mode is
enabled unconditionally, but this function will be helpful down
the line when we implement support for allocating physically
non-contiguous memory. We can no longer guarantee physically
contiguous memory unless we're in legacy or IOVA_AS_VA mode, but
we can certainly try and see if we succeed.
In addition, this would be useful for e.g. PMD's who may allocate
chunks that are smaller than the pagesize, but they must not cross
the page boundary, in which case we will be able to accommodate
that request. This function will also support non-hugepage memory.
