drm/ttm: Allocate the page pool manager in the heap.

Repeated ttm_page_alloc_init/fini fails noisily because the pool
manager kobj isn't zeroed out between uses (we could do just that but
statically allocated kobjects are generally considered a bad thing).
Move it to kzalloc'ed memory.

Note that this patch drops the refcounting behavior of the pool
allocator init/fini functions: it would have led to a race condition
in its current form, and anyway it was never exploited.

This fixes a regression with reloading kms modules at runtime, since
page allocator was introduced.
