[PATCH v1] ASoC: qcom: lpass-platform: Use SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_NONCOHERENT page allocation

Replace SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_DEV by SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_NONCOHERENT for pcm
buffer allocation. We measured about 18x performance improvement
when accessing the snd_pcm_mmap() buffer from userspace.

Eg: aarch64 with internal speaker
==
SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_DEV
    frames_per_second=66.4557M/s
    max_time_per_4096_frames=106.094u
    time_per_4096_frames=61.6351us

SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_NONCOHERENT
    frames_per_second=1028.58M/s
    max_time_per_4096_frames=20.312u
    time_per_4096_frames=3.98221us
