drm/gem_shmem: Use a writecombine mapping for ->vaddr
Right now, the BO is mapped as a cached region when ->vmap() is called and the underlying object is not a dmabuf. Doing that makes cache management a bit more complicated (you'd need to call dma_map/unmap_sg() on the ->sgt field everytime the BO is about to be passed to the GPU/CPU), so let's map the BO with writecombine attributes instead (as done in most drivers).

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
