[IA64-SGI] Do not request DMA memory for BTE
The GFP_DMA option usually does nothing on SN2 since all of memory is in thei DMA zone and the BTE has always been capable of addressing all of memory. So there is no need to get memory from a restricted range of memory (which is what GFP_DMA is for). Remove useless __GFP_DMA option.
