iommu/io-pgtable-arm: Centralise sync points
With all current users now opted in to DMA API operations, make the
iommu_dev pointer mandatory, rendering the flush_pgtable callback
redundant for cache maintenance. However, since the DMA calls could be
nops in the case of a coherent IOMMU, we still need to ensure the page
table updates are fully synchronised against a subsequent page table
walk. In the unmap path, the TLB sync will usually need to do this
anyway, so just cement that requirement; in the map path which may
consist solely of cacheable memory writes (in the coherent case),
insert an appropriate barrier at the end of the operation, and obviate
the need to call flush_pgtable on every individual update for
synchronisation.
