[PATCH v2 04/18] media/v4l2-core: set pages dirty upon releasing DMA buffers

After DMA is complete, and the device and CPU caches are synchronized,
it's still required to mark the CPU pages as dirty, if the data was
coming from the device. However, this driver was just issuing a
bare put_page() call, without any set_page_dirty*() call.

Fix the problem, by calling set_page_dirty_lock() if the CPU pages
were potentially receiving data from the device.
