drm: omapdrm: Support exporting of non-contiguous GEM BOs
Currently code allocates non-scanout BOs from SHMEM and those objects are accessible to userspace by mmap(). However, on devices with no DMM (like OMAP3), the same objects are not accessible by kernel drivers that want to render to them as code refuses to export them. In turn this means that on devices with no DMM, all buffers must be allocated as scanout, otherwise only CPU can access them. On those devices, scanout buffers are allocated from CMA, making those allocations highly unreliable. Fix that by implementing functionality to export SHMEM backed buffers on devices with no DMM. This makes CMA memory only being used when needed, instead for every buffer that has to be off-CPU rendered.
