Subject: iommu/vt-d: Avoid superfluous IOTLB tracking in lazy mode

From: Jacob Pan <jacob.jun.pan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 16a75bbe480c3598b3af57a2504ea89b1e32c3ac upstream.

Intel IOMMU driver implements IOTLB flush queue with domain selective
or PASID selective invalidations. In this case there's no need to track
IOVA page range and sync IOTLBs, which may cause significant performance
hit.

This patch adds a check to avoid IOVA gather page and IOTLB sync for
the lazy path.

The performance difference on Sapphire Rapids 100Gb NIC is improved by
the following (as measured by iperf send):

w/o this fix~48 Gbits/s. with this fix ~54 Gbits/s
