[PATCH] iommu/io-pgtable-arm: Unmap and free table when overwriting with block

When installing a block mapping, we unconditionally overwrite a non-leaf
PTE if we find one. However, this can cause a problem if the following
sequence of events occur:
(1) iommu_map called for a 4k (i.e. PAGE_SIZE) mapping at some address
- We initialise the page table all the way down to a leaf entry
- No TLB maintenance is required, because we're going from invalid
to valid.
(2) iommu_unmap is called on the mapping installed in (1)
- We walk the page table to the final (leaf) entry and zero it
- We only changed a valid leaf entry, so we invalidate leaf-only
(3) iommu_map is called on the same address as (1), but this time for
a 2MB (i.e. BLOCK_SIZE) mapping)
- We walk the page table down to the penultimate level, where we
find a table entry
- We overwrite the table entry with a block mapping and return
without any TLB maintenance and without freeing the memory used
by the now-orphaned table.
This last step can lead to a walk-cache caching the overwritten table
entry, causing unexpected faults when the new mapping is accessed by a
device. One way to fix this would be to collapse the page table when
freeing the last page at a given level, but this would require expensive
iteration on every map call. Instead, this patch detects the case when
we are overwriting a table entry and explicitly unmaps the table first,
which takes care of both freeing and TLB invalidation.

Joerg, could you queue this up for 4.3 please? It's a fix, but it's late
in the day for 4.2 and doesn't backport cleanly. Merging it with the Cc
stable tag is probably the easiest thing to do, then I can fix up the
conflicts as they arise.
