I made it have the same naming system as this:

Which becomes a fairly widly used public entry point, so I didn't want
to have the __

Though there is no external user of arm_smmu_cmdq_issue_cmd_p()

Because it is eventually cleaned up in patch 9 :) The point was not to
change this logic in this patch.

I went with how the spec was written. The CMD_CFGI_ALL has its own section
with a direct encoding of 31 in that position, no field name.

While CMD_CFGI_STE_RANGE has the same op code and names that spot
"range" and it would be a NUM_MAX, we don't use STE_RANGE..

I'm inclined to leave it for someone who adds STE_RANGE..
