[PATCH 1/2] drm/xe/lrc: Use a temporary buffer for WA BB

In case the BO is in iomem, we can't simply take the vaddr and write to
it. Instead, prepare a separate buffer that is later copied into io
memory. Right now it's just a few words that could be using
xe_map_write32(), but the intention is to grow the WA BB for other
uses.
