iommu/mtk: Avoid redundant TLB syncs locally
Under certain circumstances, the io-pgtable code may end up issuing two TLB sync operations without any intervening invalidations. This goes badly for the M4U hardware, since it means the second sync ends up polling for a non-existent operation to finish, and as a result times out and warns. The io_pgtable_tlb_* helpers implement a high-level optimisation to avoid issuing the second sync at all in such cases, but in order to work correctly that requires all pagetable operations to be serialised under a lock, thus is no longer applicable to all io-pgtable users. Since we're the only user actually relying on this flag for correctness, let's reimplement it locally to avoid the headache of trying to make the high-level version concurrency-safe for other users.
