s390/pci_dma: improve lazy flush for unmap
Lazy unmap (defer tlb flush after unmap until dma address reuse) can greatly reduce the number of RPCIT instructions in the best case. In reality we are often far away from the best case scenario because our implementation suffers from the following problem: To create dma addresses we maintain an iommu bitmap and a pointer into that bitmap to mark the start of the next search. That pointer moves from the start to the end of that bitmap and we issue a global tlb flush once that pointer wraps around. To prevent address reuse before we issue the tlb flush we even have to move the next pointer during unmaps - when clearing a bit > next. This could lead to a situation where we only use the rear part of that bitmap and issue more tlb flushes than expected. To fix this we no longer clear bits during unmap but maintain a 2nd bitmap which we use to mark addresses that can't be reused until we issue the global tlb flush after wrap around.
