[PATCH] drm/exynos: gem: Drop NONCONTIG flag for buffers allocated without IOMMU

When no IOMMU is available, all GEM buffers allocated by Exynos DRM driver
are contiguous, because of the underlying dma_alloc_attrs() function
provides only such buffers. In such case it makes no sense to keep
BO_NONCONTIG flag for the allocated GEM buffers. This allows to avoid
failures for buffer contiguity checks in the subsequent operations on GEM
objects.

This issue is there since commit 0519f9a12d011 ("drm/exynos: add iommu
support for exynos drm framework"), but this patch applies cleanly
only to v4.4+ kernel releases due changes in the surrounding code.
