PIN_MAPPABLE refers to the iomem aperture portion of the Global GTT (i.e.
the low 64-512MiB). You never use a GGTT mmap for your CPU access, so the
placement should be entirely dictated by the DSB requirements. If you
don't need to be in the low region, don't force it to be, so we have
less congestion for the objects that have to be placed in that region.
