Add a flag allowing Nouveau to specify that an object should be coherent

fences which are randomly-accessed by both the CPU and GPU. This flag
instructs the kernel driver to make sure the object remains coherent
even on architectures for which coherency is not guaranteed by the bus.

I don't see a problem with this patch, but similar patches to intel to libdrm have been shot down when the changes weren't in an official kernel yet, so I think this should wait until the change is at least in drm-next. ;-)

Sounds good. I will ping you again once the kernel change reaches -next.
