Hm so maybe I'm making myself supremely unpopular here again with being
very late, but we have dev->mode_config.prefer_shadow for this. Drivers
should set this if software rendering is slow, and userspace should follow
this.

Now unfortunately it looks like most kms drivers don't bother setting
this, and we're a lot worse.

So if "slow sw rendering" is the only reason, setting that flag is the
right option.

Now the other thing is fbdev, since fbdev doesn't have this hint at all.
But we already have full generic fbdev shadow support (for defio), so for
that I think the best option is adding a force_shadow option to fbdev.

If we otoh do this here, and some drivers get a in-kernel shadow support
for kms, while others don't, then we have a pretty supreme mess. I'd like
to avoid that.

So maybe the right solution here is that we make sure that when you have
cma helpers set up that mode_config.prefer_shadow is set. Ideally only
when coherent dma memory is uncached/write-combine and hence slow for sw
rendering. This might need a slight dma-api layering violation.
