[PATCH 3/3] drm/vmwgfx: Use coherent memory if there are dma mapping size restrictions

From: Thomas Hellstrom <thellstrom at vmware.com>
We're gradually moving towards using DMA coherent memory in most
situations, although TTM interactions with the DMA layers is still a
work-in-progress. Meanwhile, use coherent memory when there are size
restrictions meaning that there is a chance that streaming dma mapping
of large buffer objects may fail.
