Hmmm, looking at this again, maybe for now we should just go with:

type = WB;
if (i915_gem_object_is_lmem(obj))
       type = WC;

vaddr = i915_gem_object_pin_map(obj, type)

Which is way less confusing, plus there are only a handful of places 
where we need this, so doesn't seem too bad?

Alternatively, we could wrap that in something like:

/* Returns WB for system memory, or WC for local memory */
void *i915_gem_object_pin_map_default(obj);

Thoughts?
