[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] uxa: Do a little hack to use bo_pin instead of bo_map.

Because of how fallbacky the uxa rendering core is, and our inability (without
wfb in userland or page faulting in the kernel) to tell the kernel just where
we're going to fall back, the clflush overhead can become outrageous, for
example with emacs and xcompmgr. Instead of using drm_intel_bo_map, pin the
buffer and do the fallback to the aperture mapping. This gets us the bad old
performance that fb is designed for, instead of bad new performance.
