[PATCH 1/2] drm/shmem: Use cached mappings by default

SHMEM-buffer backing storage is allocated from system memory; which is
typically cachable. Currently, only virtio uses cachable mappings; udl
uses its own vmap/mmap implementation for cachable mappings. Other
drivers default to writecombine mappings.

Use cached mappings by default. The exception is pages imported via
dma-buf. DMA memory is usually not cached.
