Hi all,

This patch series is an attempt to reduce lock contention when inserting
commands into the Arm SMMUv3 command queue. Unfortunately, our initial
benchmarking has shown mixed results across the board and the changes in
the last patch don't appear to justify their complexity. Based on that,
I only plan to queue the first patch for the time being.

Anyway, before I park this series, I thought it was probably worth
sharing it in case it's useful to somebody. If you have a system where
you believe I/O performance to be limited by the SMMUv3 command queue
then please try these patches and let me know what happens, even if it's
just more bad news.

Patches based on 5.2-rc3. I've also pushed them out to my iommu/devel
branch for the moment:

Thanks,

Will
