[PATCH v2 0/4] SMMUv3 CMD_SYNC optimisation

Hi all,

Since Nate reported a reasonable performance boost from the out-of-line
MSI polling in v1 [1], I've now implemented the equivalent for cons
polling as well - that has been boot-tested on D05 with some trivial I/O
and at least doesn't seem to lock up or explode. There's also a little
cosmetic tweaking to make the patches a bit cleaner as a series.

Robin.
