What do you think about this as a final stage:
Once the set_dev_pasid and sva refactor lands, SVA could call a common
arm_smmu_inv_range_domain implementation which would:
1. Skip the TLB invalidation on a per-smmu basis if it detects that
the domain type is SVA, or based on a passed-in parameter that is only
set True by SVA.
2. Issue ATC invalidations with SSIDs found in the arm_smmu_domain.
This common function would be used for all use-cases: invalidations of
domains attached on RIDs, on PASIDs (SVA and non SVA).

Then we have two options for the intermediate stage with this series:
1. Non-SVA code uses arm_smmu_inv_range_domain which calls
arm_smmu_tlb_inv_range_domain(_no_atc) and arm_smmu_atc_range_domain,
SVA code individually calls those two functions.
arm_smmu_tlb_inv_range_domain(_no_atc) accepts a parameter to skip the
invalidation if BTM feature is set.
2. Same as option 1, but SVA also calls arm_smmu_inv_range_domain.
arm_smmu_inv_range_domain accepts both a parameter to skip TLB inv
when BTM is set, as well as an SSID for the atc invalidation. SSID
would be 0 in non-sva callers, and mm->pasid for SVA.
