[RFC PATCH v1] iommu/io-pgtable-arm: Check for leaf entry right after finding it

From: Oleksandr Tyshchenko <oleksandr_tyshchenko at epam.com>

Do a check for already installed leaf entry at the current level before
performing any actions when trying to map.

This check is already present in arm_lpae_init_pte(), i.e. before
installing new leaf entry at the current level if conditions to do so
are met (size == block_size).

But, this might be insufficient in case when we have already
installed block mapping at this level and it is not time to
install new leaf entry (size != block_size).
In that case we continue walking the page table down with wrong pointer
to the next level.

So, move check from arm_lpae_init_pte() to __arm_lpae_map() in order to
avoid all cases.

I hope that following actions can help to catch it:
1. Call iommu_map for a block mapping (e.g. 2M) at some address
   (e.g. iova 0x80000000 pa 0x80000000).
2. Call iommu_map for a page mapping (4k) at some address from
   the previous mapped region (e.g. iova 0x80008000 pa 0x90000000).

I understand that after iommu_map should be iommu_unmap, but
different scenarios may occur).
