[PATCH 0/8] iommu/vt-d: Hitless PASID updates via entry_sync

[Lu Baolu <baolu.lu@linux.intel.com>]

This is a follow-up to recent discussions on the iommu community mailing
list [1] [2] regarding potential race conditions in table entry updates.
After addressing atomicity in context and PASID entry updates [3], this
series modernizes Intel IOMMU driver by introducing a "hitless" update
mechanism.

The core of this series lifts the synchronization logic originally found
in the ARM SMMUv3 driver into a generic IOMMU library (entry_sync) and
plumbs it into the Intel IOMMU driver.

Traditionally, updating a PASID table entry while the hardware is
performing DMA required a disruptive "clear-then-update" sequence. By
analyzing "used bits" and enforcing 128-bit atomicity via CMPXCHG16B,
this library allows the driver to transition between translation modes
hitlessly whenever possible.
