[PATCH] drm: mediatek: remove IOMMU_DMA select

We get a harmless build warning when trying to use the mediatek
DRM driver with IOMMU support disabled:

warning: (DRM_MEDIATEK) selects IOMMU_DMA which has unmet direct dependencies (IOMMU_SUPPORT)

However, the IOMMU_DMA symbol is not meant to be used by drivers
at all, and this driver doesn't seem to have a strict dependency
on it other than using the mediatek IOMMU driver that does.

Since we also want to be able to do compile tests with the
driver on other platforms, the IOMMU_DMA symbol should not
be selected here.

If someone has a better explanation about why the 'select' is here,
let me know, it certainly seems out of place.
No, it just has been there since the initial RFC and nobody noticed.

I tried
  make ARCH=arm64 allnoconfig
and then set
  CONFIG_MODULES=y
  CONFIG_ARCH_MEDIATEK=y
  CONFIG_DRM=m
  CONFIG_DRM_MEDIATEK=m

And it builds fine with IOMMU_DMA/MTK_IOMMU disabled.

thanks
Philipp
