iommu/arm-smmu: Disable interrupts whilst holding the cmdq lock
The cmdq lock is taken whenever we issue commands into the command queue, which can occur in IRQ context (as a result of unmap) or in process context (as a result of a threaded IRQ handler or device probe). This can lead to a theoretical deadlock if the interrupt handler performing the unmap hits whilst the lock is taken, so explicitly use the {irqsave,irqrestore} spin_lock accessors for the cmdq lock.
