The udl use-case should be covered already, simply set the flag correctly
at create/import time? It's per-object ...

btw on why udl does this: Imported bo are usually rendered by real hw, and
reading it uncached/wc is the more defensive setting. It would be kinda
nice if dma-buf would expose this, but I fear dma-api maintainers would
murder us if we even just propose that ... so it's a mess right now.

btw the issue extends to dma access by devices too, e.g. both i915 and
amdgpu can select the coherency mode at runtime (using e.g. the pcie
no-snoop transaction mode), and we have similar uncoordinated hacks in
there too, like in udl.
