[PATCH] drm/xe: Limit sg segment size to PAGE_SIZE on Xen PV

[PATCH] drm/xe: Limit sg segment size to PAGE_SIZE on Xen PV

[Szymon Acedański]

Fixes display corruption on Xen PV dom0, where DMA buffers are not
guaranteed machine-contiguous, in which case bounce buffering kicks
in, breaking xe's memory coherency assumptions.

Apply the same workaround i915 carries in i915_sg_segment_size() since
commit 78a07fe777c4 ("drm/i915: stop abusing swiotlb_max_segment").

Fixes: dd08ebf6c352 ("drm/xe: Introduce a new DRM driver for Intel GPUs")
