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.
