Hmm, I'm still a little wary of this. The only reason we emit a CMD_SYNC
in __arm_smmu_cmdq_skip_err() is because the SMMU doesn't have a NOP
command. So I'd really like the SYNC to have as little functionality
as possible in this case.

I think we could either propapate the 'cs' field down to
arm_smmu_cmdq_build_cmd() or just open-code the command-creation in
__arm_smmu_cmdq_skip_err().
