[PATCH v3] iommu/arm-smmu-v3: permit users to disable MSI polling

[Barry Song <song.bao.hua@hisilicon.com>]

Polling by MSI isn't necessarily faster than polling by SEV. Tests on
hi1620 show hns3 100G NIC network throughput can improve from 25G to
27G if we disable MSI polling while running 16 netperf threads sending
UDP packets in size 32KB.
This patch provides a command line option so that users can decide to
use MSI polling or not based on their tests.

 -v3:
  * rebase on top of linux-next as arm-smmu-v3.c has moved;
  * provide a command line option
