drm: omapdrm: Do no allocate non-scanout GEMs through DMM/TILER
On devices with DMM, all allocations are done through either DMM or TILER. DMM/TILER being a limited resource means that such allocations will start to fail before actual free memory is exhausted. What is even worse is that with time DMM/TILER space gets fragmented to the point that even if we have enough free DMM/TILER space and free memory, allocation fails because there is no big enough free block in DMM/TILER space. Such failures can be easily observed with OMAP xorg DDX, for example - starting few GUI applications (so buffers for their windows are allocated) and then rotating landscape<->portrait while closing and opening new windows soon results in allocation failures. Fix that by mapping buffers through DMM/TILER only when really needed, like, for scanout buffers.
