[PATCH] common: dma-mapping: add support for generic dma_mmap_* calls

Commit 9adc5374 ('common: dma-mapping: introduce mmap method') added a generic method for implementing mmap user call to dma_map_ops structure. This patch converts ARM and PowerPC architectures (the only providers of dma_mmap_coherent/dma_mmap_writecombine calls) to use this generic dma_map_ops
