When DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING is passed to dma_alloc_attrs(), the
returned CPU address is not a pointer to the allocated memory but an
opaque handle (e.g. struct page *).
Coherent<T> (or CoherentAllocation<T> respectively) stores this value as
NonNull<T> and exposes methods that dereference it and even modify its
contents.
Remove the flag from the public attrs module such that drivers cannot
pass it to Coherent<T> (or CoherentAllocation<T> respectively) in the
first place.
Instead DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING can be supported with an additional
opaque type (e.g. CoherentHandle) which does not provide access to the
allocated memory.
