IOMMU-based DMA-mapping implementation doesn't support
dma_declare_coherent() based regions, so there is no point to call
dma_mmap_from_coherent() from __iommu_mmap_atts(). This patch removes
useless code.

Okay, I've missed that alloc/free_from_coherent is handled in generic
include/linux/dma-mapping.h. It is still a bit strange case with no real
user, but if this code is already there, then let it be.

That might be a good idea, although I'm not sure how portable is
pgprot_dmacoherent(), which will be needed by such common code.

Please ignore my patch then.
