drm/xen-front: Fix mmap attributes for display buffers

When GEM backing storage is allocated those are normal pages,
so there is no point using pgprot_writecombine while mmaping.
This fixes mismatch of buffer pages' memory attributes between
the frontend and backend which may cause screen artifacts.
