Subject: [PATCH 4/4] drm/nouveau: introduce CPU cache flushing macro

Some architectures (e.g. ARM) need the CPU buffers to be explicitely
flushed for a memory write to take effect. Not doing so results in
synchronization issues, especially after writing to BOs.

This patch introduces a macro that flushes the caches on ARM and
translates to a no-op on other architectures, and uses it when
writing to in-memory BOs. It will also be useful for implementations of
instmem that access shared memory directly instead of going through
PRAMIN.
