Daniel Vetter 804b6e5ee6 drm/shmem-helpers: Allocate wc pages on x86
intel-gfx-ci realized that something is not quite coherent anymore on
some platforms for our i915+vgem tests, when I tried to switch vgem
over to shmem helpers.

After lots of head-scratching I realized that I've removed calls to
drm_clflush. And we need those. To make this a bit cleaner use the
same page allocation tooling as ttm, which does internally clflush
(and more, as neeeded on any platform instead of just the intel x86
cpus i915 can be combined with).

Unfortunately this doesn't exist on arm, or as a generic feature. For
that I think only the dma-api can get at wc memory reliably, so maybe
we'd need some kind of GFP_WC flag to do this properly.

v2: Add a TODO comment about what should be done to support this in
other places (Thomas)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
