iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Fix soft lockup triggered by arm_smmu_mm_invalidate_range
When running an SVA case, the following soft lockup is triggered:

Note that since 6.6-rc1 the arm_smmu_mm_invalidate_range above is renamed
to "arm_smmu_mm_arch_invalidate_secondary_tlbs", yet the problem remains.
The commit 06ff87bae8d3 ("arm64: mm: remove unused functions and variable
protoypes") fixed a similar lockup on the CPU MMU side. Yet, it can occur
to SMMU too, since arm_smmu_mm_arch_invalidate_secondary_tlbs() is called
typically next to MMU tlb flush function, e.g.
tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly {
tlb_flush {
__flush_tlb_range {
// check MAX_TLBI_OPS
}
}
mmu_notifier_arch_invalidate_secondary_tlbs {
arm_smmu_mm_arch_invalidate_secondary_tlbs {
// does not check MAX_TLBI_OPS
}
}
}
Clone a CMDQ_MAX_TLBI_OPS from the MAX_TLBI_OPS in tlbflush.h, since in an
SVA case SMMU uses the CPU page table, so it makes sense to align with the
tlbflush code. Then, replace per-page TLBI commands with a single per-asid
TLBI command, if the request size hits this threshold.
