drm/nouveau: implement explicitly coherent BOs
Allow nouveau_bo_new() to recognize the TTM_PL_FLAG_UNCACHED flag, which means that we want the allocated BO to be perfectly coherent between the CPU and GPU. This is useful on non-coherent architectures for which we do not want to manually sync some rarely-accessed buffers: typically, fences and pushbuffers. A TTM BO allocated with the TTM_PL_FLAG_UNCACHED on a non-coherent architecture will be populated using the DMA API, and accesses to it performed using the coherent mapping performed by dma_alloc_coherent().
