Subject: [PATCH 1/1] arm64/dma-mapping: remove an unnecessary conversion

1. In swiotlb_alloc_coherent, the branch of __get_free_pages. Directly
   return vaddr on success, and pass vaddr to free_pages on failure.
2. So, we can directly transparent pass vaddr from __dma_free to
   swiotlb_free_coherent, keep consistent with swiotlb_alloc_coherent.

This patch have no functional change, but can obtain a bit performance
improvement.
