[PATCH v2 1/1] arm64/dma-mapping: reduce an unnecessary conversion for coherent DMA

1.For coherent DMA
  In swiotlb_alloc_coherent, it directly return vaddr on success, and
pass vaddr to free_pages on failure. So, we can directly transparent pass
vaddr from __dma_free to swiotlb_free_coherent.

2.Keep no change for non-coherent DMA.
