iommu/arm-smmu: Keep track of S2CR state
Making S2CRs first-class citizens within the driver with a high-level representation of their state offers a neat solution to a few problems: Firstly, the information about which context a device's stream IDs are associated with is already present by necessity in the S2CR. With that state easily accessible we can refer directly to it and obviate the need to track an IOMMU domain in each device's archdata (its earlier purpose of enforcing correct attachment of multi-device groups now being handled by the IOMMU core itself). Secondly, the core API now deprecates explicit domain detach and expects domain attach to move devices smoothly from one domain to another; for SMMUv2, this notion maps directly to simply rewriting the S2CRs assigned to the device. By giving the driver a suitable abstraction of those S2CRs to work with, we can massively reduce the overhead of the current heavy-handed "detach, free resources, reallocate resources, attach" approach. Thirdly, making the software state hardware-shaped and attached to the SMMU instance once again makes suspend/resume of this register group that much simpler to implement in future.
