Virtual addresses return from dma(m)_alloc_coherent are opaque in what

to use the generic DMA API mmap helper to avoid these problems.
Change itself looks fine but the patch description doesn't match what
the patch is actually doing (there is no conversion to DMA API helper
because the driver is already using it). Please correct it. Thank you.
