All the way back to introducing dma_common_mmap we've defaulyed to mark

the pages as uncached.  But this is wrong for DMA coherent devices.
Later on DMA_ATTR_WRITE_COMBINE also got incorrect treatment as that
flag is only treated special on the alloc side for non-coherent devices.

Introduce a new dma_pgprot helper that deals with the check for coherent
devices so that only the remapping cases even reach arch_dma_mmap_pgprot
