[v2,1/4] target-arm: Declare virtio-mmio as dma-coherent in dt

Commit Message

QEMU emulated hardware is always dma coherent with its guest. We do
annotate that correctly on the PCI host controller, but left out
virtio-mmio.

Recent kernels have started to interpret that flag rather than take
dma coherency as granted with virtio-mmio. While that is considered
a kernel bug, as it breaks previously working systems, it showed that
our dt description is incomplete.

This patch adds the respective marker that allows guest OSs to evaluate
that our virtio-mmio devices are indeed cache coherent.
