[PATCH v2 1/2] mm/vmalloc: drop VM_DMA_COHERENT from remap_vmalloc_range_partial

[Ye Liu]

From: Ye Liu <liuye@xxxxxxxxxx>

No caller maps a VM_DMA_COHERENT area through this path: such areas
come from dma_alloc_coherent() internals and are freed via vunmap(),
never through remap_vmalloc_range[_partial](); all 13 callers pass
vmalloc_user()/vmalloc()-backed addresses.

The flag was added in commit fe9041c245196 ("vmalloc: lift the arm
flag for coherent mappings to common code") as a mechanical
translation of ARM's VM_ARM_DMA_CONSISTENT.

Drop it so DMA-coherent areas can never enter the path.
