...on which note, how about something like this on top?

(untested since I don't have any SMMUv3 hardware to hand)

Subject: [PATCH] iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Improve arm_smmu_ll_queue efficiency

Once initialised, max_n_shift is only ever read at the same time as
accessing prod or cons, thus should not have any impact on contention
to justify keeping it in its own separate cacheline. Move it inside the
padding union to halve the size of struct arm_smmu_ll_queue. Even then,
though, there are a couple more spots in the command issuing path where
we could do without the overhead of zeroing even one cache line worth of
padding, so avoid implicit initialisation of those temporary structures
as was done at the top level in arm_smmu_cmdq_issue_cmdlist().

Furthermore, the shift value is only directly relevant for initially
setting up the relevant queue base register; all we care about after
that is the number of entries, so store that value instead once a
queue is initialised and avoid needlessly recalculating it everywhere.
