[PATCH v1] drm/panthor: Serialize GPU cache flush operations

In certain scenarios, it is possible for multiple cache flushes to be
requested before the previous one completes. This patch introduces the
cache_flush_lock mutex to serialize these operations and ensure that
any requested cache flushes are completed instead of dropped.
