[PATCH 2/2] drm/msm: gpu: don't abuse dma_alloc for non-DMA allocations

In zap_shader_load_mdt(), we pass a pointer to a phys_addr_t
into dmam_alloc_coherent, which the compiler warns about:

drivers/gpu/drm/msm/adreno/a5xx_gpu.c: In function 'zap_shader_load_mdt':
drivers/gpu/drm/msm/adreno/a5xx_gpu.c:54:50: error: passing argument 3 of 'dmam_alloc_coherent' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]

The returned DMA address is later passed on to a function that
takes a phys_addr_t, so it's clearly wrong to use the DMA
mapping interface here: the memory may be uncached, or the
address may be completely wrong if there is an IOMMU connected
to the device. What the code actually wants to do is to get
the physical address from the reserved-mem node. It goes through
the dma-mapping interfaces for obscure reasons, and this
apparently only works by chance, relying on specific bugs
in the error handling of the arm64 dma-mapping implementation.

The same problem existed in the "venus" media driver, which was
now fixed by Stanimir Varbanov after long discussions.

In order to make some progress here, I have now ported his
approach over to the adreno driver. The patch is currently
untested, and should get a good review, but it is now much
simpler than the original, and it should be obvious what
goes wrong if I made a mistake in the port.

I think we want this to be applied for 4.13, as the upstream
code that was added in the merge window is seriously broken without it
