This introduces yet another memory blocks allocator where:
() All memory blocks have a single fixed size.
() Multiple blocks can be allocated or freed at the same time.
() A group of blocks allocated together may not be contiguous.
This is useful for operations such as scatter-gather DMA
transfers.
() Bookkeeping of allocated blocks is done outside of
the associated buffer (unlike memory slab). This allows
the buffer to reside in memory regions where these can be
powered down to conserve energy.
