GFP_DMA is actually safe to use even without CONFIG_ZONE_DMA, so you
only need to check for SLAB_CACHE_DMA here.

I think this assertion can be removed altogether and replaced by ORing
the passed in flags with the cache gfp flags.  The page allocator will
catch any contradictions, but the 3 callsites that actually do use DMA
caches are well-behaved as of now.
