[PATCH rc v4 3/5] iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Skip EVTQ/PRIQ setup in kdump kernel

In kdump cases, the crashed kernel's CDs and page tables can be corrupted,
which could trigger event spamming. Also, we cannot serve page requests.
Skip the EVTQ/PRIQ setup entirely rather than enabling then disabling them.
Skip the IRQ setup and guard their thread functions as well.
Also add some inline comments explaining that.
Fixes: b63b3439b856 ("iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Abort all transactions if SMMU is enabled in kdump kernel")
