Subject: [PATCH] drm: Remove PageReserved manipulation from drm_pci_alloc

drm_pci_alloc/drm_pci_free are very thin wrappers around the core dma
facilities, and we have no special reason within the drm layer to behave
differently. In particular, since

   page-flags: define PG_reserved behavior on compound pages

   As far as I can see there's no users of PG_reserved on compound pages.
