ARCH_R9A07G043 does not select DMA_DIRECT_REMAP directly,
RISCV_DMA_NONCOHERENT does.  And there are other users of
RISCV_DMA_NONCOHERENT (RISCV_ISA_ZICBOM and ERRATA_THEAD_CMO).
Should the selection of DMA_DIRECT_REMAP moved to their users?

Note that the fix is already in soc/for-next, so we need coordination
with the soc people.
