This RFC series is the followed patch of this discussion:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg866187.html. 

Currently there is no debug interface about SMMUv3 driver, which makes it
not convenient when we want to dump some information, like the value of
CD/STE, S1/S2 page table, SMMU registers or cmd/event/pri queues.

This series tries to add support of dumping CD/STE and page table. The
interface design is that user sets device/pasid firstly by sysfs files
and then read related sysfs file to get information:

 (currently only support PCI device)
 echo <domain>:<bus>:<dev>.<fun> > /sys/kernel/debug/iommu/smmuv3/pci_dev
 echo <pasid> > /sys/kernel/debug/iommu/smmuv3/pasid
 
 Then value in CD and STE can be got by:
 cat /sys/kernel/debug/iommu/smmuv3/ste
 cat /sys/kernel/debug/iommu/smmuv3/cd
 
 S1 and S2 page tables can be got by:
 cat /sys/kernel/debug/iommu/smmuv3/pt_dump_s1
 cat /sys/kernel/debug/iommu/smmuv3/pt_dump_s2

For STE, CD and page table, related device and pasid are set in pci_dev
and pasid files as above.

First and second patch export some help functions or macros in arm-smmu-v3
and io-pgtable-arm codes, so we can reuse them in debugfs.c. As a RFC, this
series does not go further to dump SMMU registers and cmd/event/pri queues.
I am not sure this series is in the right way, so let's post it out and have a
discussion. Looking forward to any feedback.
