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.)
