[RFC PATCH 26/30] iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Fix PRI queue overflow acknowledgement

When an overflow occurs in the PRI queue, the SMMU toggles the overflow
flag in the PROD register. To exit the overflow condition, the PRI thread
is supposed to acknowledge it by toggling this flag in the CONS register.

Currently with an overflow condition, the flag is toggled in q->cons after
clearing the PRI queue, but is never published to the hardware. It would
be done next time we execute the thread. However, we never get a chance
because the SMMU doesn't append anything to the queue while in overflow
condition, and the thread is not scheduled unless the queue transitions
from empty to non-empty. To fix it, synchronize the hardware CONS register
before leaving the PRIQ thread.

This bug doesn't affect the event queue, since the SMMU still adds
elements to that queue when the overflow condition is active. Even missing
an overflow condition because one is already active doesn't matter. We
won't miss fault records for stalled transactions. But it feels nicer to
keep the SMMU in sync when possible, so do it there as well.
