Revert "drm/mgag200: Add a workaround for low-latency"
This reverts commit bfa4437fd3938ae2e186e7664b2db65bb8775670. This workaround doesn't work reliably on all servers. I'll replace it with an option to disable Write-Combine, which has more impact on performance, but fix the latency issue on all hardware.

- bool "Disable buffer caching"
- depends on DRM_MGAG200 && PREEMPT_RT && X86
- help
- Enable a workaround to avoid I/O bursts within the mgag200 driver at
- the expense of overall display performance.
- It restores the <v5.10 behavior, by mapping the framebuffer in system
- RAM as Write-Combining, and flushing the cache after each write.
- This is only useful on x86_64 if you want to run processes with
- deterministic latency.
- If unsure, say N.
