iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Mark EATS_TRANS safe when computing the update sequence

Browse source

If VM wants to toggle EATS_TRANS off at the same time as changing the CFG,
hypervisor will see EATS change to 0 and insert a V=0 breaking update into
the STE even though the VM did not ask for that.

In bare metal, EATS_TRANS is ignored by CFG=ABORT/BYPASS, which is why this
does not cause a problem until we have the nested case where CFG is always
a variation of S2 trans that does use EATS_TRANS.

Relax the rules for EATS_TRANS sequencing, we don't need it to be exact as
the enclosing code will always disable ATS at the PCI device when changing
EATS_TRANS. This ensures there are no ATS transactions that can race with
an EATS_TRANS change so we don't need to carefully sequence these bits.
