iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Reduce contention during command-queue insertion
The SMMU command queue is a bottleneck in large systems, thanks to the spin_lock which serialises accesses from all CPUs to the single queue supported by the hardware. Attempt to improve this situation by moving to a new algorithm for inserting commands into the queue, which is lock-free on the fast-path.
