In arm_smmu_init_one_queue(), the driver attempts to allocate the largest
supported queue and retries by halving the size on failure. Currently,
the retry logic allows the allocation to fall below PAGE_SIZE if the
PAGE_SIZE attempt fails.
While dmam_alloc_coherent() can theoretically return allocations smaller
than a page in certain configurations, it is preferable to limit the
retry boundary to PAGE_SIZE for SMMUv3 queues to align with the
original design intent.
This patch ensures the retry loop terminates when qsz reaches PAGE_SIZE,
per the feedback from the maintainer.
