iommu/arm-smmu: use mutex instead of spinlock for locking page tables
When creating IO mappings, we lazily allocate our page tables using the
standard, non-atomic allocator functions. This presents us with a
problem, since our page tables are protected with a spinlock.
This patch reworks the smmu_domain lock to use a mutex instead of a
spinlock. iova_to_phys is then reworked so that it only reads the page
tables, and can run in a lockless fashion, leaving the mutex to guard
against concurrent mapping threads.
