xen/arm/arm64: introduce xen_arch_need_swiotlb
commit a4dba130 upstream. Introduce an arch specific function to find out whether a particular dma mapping operation needs to bounce on the swiotlb buffer. On ARM and ARM64, if the page involved is a foreign page and the device is not coherent, we need to bounce because at unmap time we cannot execute any required cache maintenance operations (we don't know how to find the pfn from the mfn). No change of behaviour for x86.
