[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 11/11] drm/i915: Use uncached(WC) mapping for acessing the GuC log buffer

From: Akash Goel <akash.goel at intel.com>

Host needs to sample the GuC log buffer on every flush interrupt from GuC.
To ensure that we always get the up-to-date data from log buffer, its
better to access the buffer through an uncached CPU mapping.
Since the data to be read is less than 50 KB, there would not be any
performance implications.
