    x86/mm: avoid playing with directmap when self-snoop can be relied upon
    
    The set of systems affected by XSA-345 would have been smaller is we had
    this in place already: When the processor is capable of dealing with
    mismatched cacheability, there's no extra work we need to carry out.
