Instruction from hardware arch is that stolen memory and BAR mappings
are unsafe for use as ring buffers. There can be issues with cache
aliasing due to the CPU access going to memory via the BAR. So, don't
do it.
v2: Dont use BAR mappings either.
Make conditional on LLC so as not to change platforms that don't need
to change (Daniele).
Add 'Fixes' tags (Tvrtko).
v3: Fix dumb typo.
