Set allow_cache_hints to 1 for the vb2_queue capture queue in the STM32MP15xx DCMI V4L2 driver. This allows us to allocate buffers with the V4L2_MEMORY_FLAG_NON_COHERENT set. On STM32MP15xx SoCs, this enables caching for this memory, which improves performance when being read from CPU.
This change should be safe from race conditions since videobuf2 already invalidates or flushes the appropriate cache lines in its prepare() and finish() methods. Tested on a STM32MP157F SoC. Resulted in 4x buffer access speedup.
