[etnaviv-next v13 4/7] drm/etnaviv: Add support for cached coherent caching mode

In the etnaviv_gem_vmap_impl(), update the page property from writecombine
to PAGE_KERNEL on cached mapping. Previously, it use writecombine page
property to vmap cached buffer unconditionally. Many modern CPUs choose to
define the peripheral devices as DMA coherent by default, to be specific,
the peripheral devices are capable of snooping CPU's cache. Therefore,
cached buffers should be accessed with cached mapping.

While at it, probe cached coherent support at the host platform with the
dev_is_dma_coherent() function. This allows userspace to query on the
runtime, which avoid compile-time macros (#ifdefs). Modern CPUs choose to
define the peripheral devices as DMA coherent by default, In other words,
the peripheral devices are capable of snooping CPU's cache. This means
that device drivers do not need to maintain the coherency issue between
a processor and an peripheral I/O for the cached mapping buffers. Such a
hardware feature is implementation-defined by host CPU platform, not the
vivante GPU IP core itself. X86-64, LoongArch and Loongson Mips CPU and
some ARM64 CPU has the hardware maintain cache coherency, but ARM CPU is
not. So provide mechanism to let userspace know.
