Yeah, with this patch the caching mode should now at least be consistent 
for lmem objects, for smem we still need more patches.

For lmem everything should already be WC for in-kernel mappings. For 
everything else which uses pin_map() we will need to default to cached. 
I guess just add a different helper for this? We should probably also 
adjust the obj->cache_level for dg1.
