iommu/io-pgtable-armv7s: Fix kmem_cache_alloc() flags
Whilst the default SLUB allocator happily just merges the original allocation flags from kmem_cache_create() with those passed through kmem_cache_alloc(), there is a code path in the SLAB allocator which will aggressively BUG_ON() if the cache was created with SLAB_CACHE_DMA but GFP_DMA is not specified for an allocation: kernel BUG at mm/slab.c:2536!
