    drm/xe: Use write-back caching mode for system memory on DGFX
    
    The caching mode for buffer objects with VRAM as a possible
    placement was forced to write-combined, regardless of placement.
    
    However, write-combined system memory is expensive to allocate and
    even though it is pooled, the pool is expensive to shrink, since
    it involves global CPU TLB flushes.
    
    Moreover write-combined system memory from TTM is only reliably
    available on x86 and DGFX doesn't have an x86 restriction.
    
    So regardless of the cpu caching mode selected for a bo,
    internally use write-back caching mode for system memory on DGFX.
    
    Coherency is maintained, but user-space clients may perceive a
    difference in cpu access speeds.
    
    v2:
    - Update RB- and Ack tags.
    - Rephrase wording in xe_drm.h (Matt Roper)
    v3:
    - Really rephrase wording.
