generic code (like we do with drm_clflush, which defacto also only really
works on x86).

Also note that ttm has the exact same ifdef in its page allocator, but it
does fall back to using dma_alloc_coherent on other platforms.

If this fixes a real problem and there's no full solution yet, let's take what we have. So if you can extract the essence of this comment into a TODO comment that tells how to fix the issue, fell free to add my
