mmc: at91_mci: don't use coherent dma buffers
At91_mci is abusing dma_free_coherent(), which may not be called with IRQs
disabled. I saw "mkfs.ext3" on an MMC card objecting voluminously as each
write completed:

This bug has been around for a LONG time. The MM warning is from late
2005, but the driver merged a year later ... so I'm puzzled why nobody
noticed this before now.
The fix involves noting that this buffer shouldn't be DMA-coherent; it's
just used for normal DMA writes. So replace it with standard kmalloc()
buffering and DMA mapping calls.
This is the quickie fix. A better one would not rely on allocating large
bounce buffers. (Note that dma_alloc_coherent could have failed too, but
that case was ignored... kmalloc is a bit more likely to fail though.)
