Shawn Lin 2d6fcdcaf4 arm64: dts: rockchip: add dma-coherent for pcie and gmac of RK3576
The RK3576 SoC employs ARM CCI for maintaining cache coherency
between the CPU cluster and high-speed peripherals including USB3,
SATA, GMAC, and PCIe controllers. While the USB3 and SATA controllers
were correctly marked as dma-coherent, the GMAC and PCIe nodes were
overlooked.

Without dma-coherent, the kernel falls back to software cache maintenance
for DMA operations, requiring explicit cache flushing and invalidating.
This adds significant overhead that degrades performance in high-throughput
workloads.

Add the missing dma-coherent properties to enable hardware coherency and
avoid unnecessary software cache management overhead.
