[PATCH RESEND] drm/ttm: expose CPU address of DMA-allocated pages

Pages allocated using the DMA API have a coherent memory mapping. Make
this mapping visible to drivers so they can decide to use it instead of
creating their own redundant one.

This is not a mere optimization: for instance, on ARM it is illegal to
have several memory mappings to the same memory with different protection.
The mapping provided by dma_alloc_coherent() and exposed by this patch is
guaranteed to be safe, but subsequent mappings performed by drivers are
not. Thus drivers using the DMA page allocator should use this mapping
instead of creating their own.

This patch was previously part of a series but I figured it would make more
sense to send it separately. It is to be used by Nouveau (and hopefully
other drivers) on ARM.
