The condition "(int)(VAL - sync_idx) >= 0" to break loop in function
__arm_smmu_sync_poll_msi requires that sync_idx must be increased
monotonously according to the sequence of the CMDs in the cmdq.

But ".msidata = atomic_inc_return_relaxed(&smmu->sync_nr)" is not protected
by spinlock, so the following scenarios may appear:
cpu0 cpu1
msidata=0
msidata=1
insert cmd1
insert cmd0
smmu execute cmd1
smmu execute cmd0
poll timeout, because msidata=1 is overridden by
cmd0, that means VAL=0, sync_idx=1.

This is not a functional problem, just make the caller wait for a long
time until TIMEOUT. It's rare to happen, because any other CMD_SYNCs
during the waiting period will break it.

If we *are* going to go down this route then I think it would make sense to move the msiaddr and CMDQ_SYNC_0_CS_MSI logic here as well; i.e. arm_smmu_cmdq_build_cmd() always generates a "normal" SEV-based sync command, then calling this guy would convert it to an MSI-based one. As-is, having bits of mutually-dependent data handled across two separate places just seems too messy and error-prone.

That said, I still don't think that just building the whole command under the lock is really all that bad - even when it doesn't get optimised into one of the assignments that memset you call out is only a single "stp xzr, xzr, ...", and a couple of extra branches doesn't seem a huge deal compared to the DSB and MMIO accesses (and potentially polling) that we're about to do anyway. I've tried hacking things up enough to convince GCC to inline a specialisation of the relevant switch case when ent->opcode is known, and that reduces the "overhead" down to just a handful of ALU instructions. I still need to try cleaning said hack up and double-check that it doesn't have any adverse impact on all the other SMMUv3 stuff in development, but watch this space...

Robin.
