[PATCH 3/3] drivers: dma-coherent: use memset_io for DMA_MEMORY_IO mappings

Use memset_io() for DMA_MEMORY_IO mappings which are mapped as I/O
memory, and regular memset() for DMA_MEMORY_MAP mappings.

This fixes the below alignment fault on arm64 for DMA_MEMORY_IO
mappings, where memset() uses the DC ZVA instruction which is
invalid on device memory.

   Unhandled fault: alignment fault (0x96000061) at 0xffffff8000380000
