arc: Add our own implementation of fb_pgprotect()
During mmaping of frame-buffer pages to user-space fb_protect() is called to set proper page settings. In case of ARC we need to mark pages that are mmaped to user as uncached because of 2 reasons: * Huge amount of data if passing through data cache will thrash cache a lot making cache almost useless for other less traffic hungry processes. * Data written by user in FB will be immediately available for hardware (such as PGU etc) without requirements to flush data cache regularly.
