[PATCH v3 1/3] rust: dma: clarify wording and be consistent in `coherent` nomenclature

[Abdiel Janulgue <abdiel.janulgue@gmail.com>]

In the kernel, `consistent` and `coherent` are used interchangeably for the
region described in this api. Stick with `coherent` nomenclature
to show that dma_alloc_coherent() is being used, in addition to improving
the clarity in the DMA mapping attributes documentation.
