[RFC PATCH] drm: disable WC optimization for cache coherent devices on non-x86

Currently, the DRM code assumes that PCI devices are always cache
coherent for DMA, and that this can be selectively overridden for
some buffers using non-cached mappings on the CPU side and PCIe
NoSnoop transactions on the bus side.
Whether the NoSnoop part is implemented correctly is highly platform
specific. Whether it /matters/ if NoSnoop is implemented correctly or
not is architecture specific: on x86, such transactions are coherent
with the CPU whether the NoSnoop attribute is honored or not. On other
architectures, it depends on whether such transactions may allocate in
caches that are non-coherent with the CPU's uncached mappings.
Bottom line is that we should not rely on this optimization to work
correctly for cache coherent devices in the general case. On the
other hand, disabling this optimization for non-coherent devices
is likely to cause breakage as well, since the driver will assume
cache coherent PCIe if this optimization is turned off.
So rename drm_arch_can_wc_memory() to drm_device_can_wc_memory(), and
pass the drm_device pointer into it so we can base the return value
on whether the device is cache coherent or not if not running on
X86.
