commit ac9c5e92dd15b9927e7355ccf79df76a58b44344 upstream.

Although it's vanishingly unlikely that anyone would integrate an SMMU
within a coherent interconnect without also making the pagetable walk
interface coherent, the same effect happens if a coherent SMMU fails to
advertise CTTW correctly. This turns out to be the case on some popular
NXP SoCs, where VFIO started failing the IOMMU_CAP_CACHE_COHERENCY test,
even though IOMMU_CACHE *was* previously achieving the desired effect
anyway thanks to the underlying integration.

While those SoCs stand to gain some more general benefits from a
firmware update to override CTTW correctly in DT/ACPI, it's also easy
to work around this in Linux as well, to avoid imposing too much on
affected users - since the upstream client devices *are* correctly
marked as coherent, we can trivially infer their coherent paths through
the SMMU as well.
