Alexander Lobakin ea01fa7031 iommu/dma: avoid expensive indirect calls for sync operations
When IOMMU is on, the actual synchronization happens in the same cases
as with the direct DMA. Advertise %DMA_F_CAN_SKIP_SYNC in IOMMU DMA to
skip sync ops calls (indirect) for non-SWIOTLB buffers.

perf profile before the patch:

    18.53%  [kernel]       [k] gq_rx_skb
    14.77%  [kernel]       [k] napi_reuse_skb

<*>  0.50%  [kernel]       [k] __x86_indirect_thunk_r11
     0.45%  [kernel]       [k] memset

After patch, lines with <*> no longer show up, and overall
cpu usage looks much better (~60% instead of ~72%):

    25.56%  [kernel]       [k] gq_rx_skb
     9.90%  [kernel]       [k] napi_reuse_skb
     7.39%  [kernel]       [k] dev_gro_receive
     6.78%  [kernel]       [k] memcpy
     6.53%  [kernel]       [k] skb_release_data
     6.39%  [kernel]       [k] tcp_gro_receive
     5.71%  [kernel]       [k] ipv6_gro_receive
     4.35%  [kernel]       [k] napi_gro_frags
     4.34%  [kernel]       [k] skb_gro_receive
     3.50%  [kernel]       [k] gq_pool_get
     3.08%  [kernel]       [k] gq_rx_napi_handler
     2.35%  [kernel]       [k] tcp6_gro_receive
     2.06%  [kernel]       [k] gq_rx_prep_buffers
     1.32%  [kernel]       [k] csum_partial
     0.93%  [kernel]       [k] csum_ipv6_magic
     0.65%  [kernel]       [k] net_rx_action

iavf yields +10% of Mpps on Rx. This also unblocks batched allocations
of XSk buffers when IOMMU is active.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
