Fix dma_direct_alloc() failure at resume time during bhie_table
allocation because of memory pressure. There is a report where at
resume time, the memory from the dma doesn't get allocated and MHI
fails to re-initialize.

To fix it, don't free the memory at power down during suspend /
hibernation. Instead, use the same allocated memory again after every
resume / hibernation. This patch has been tested with resume and
hibernation both.

The rddm is of constant size for a given hardware. While the fbc_image
size depends on the firmware. If the firmware changes, we'll free and
allocate new memory for it.

Why is it valid to load new firmware as a result of suspend? I don't users would expect that.

Why is this FBC specific?
