[1/6] iommu/qcom: Use the asid read from device-tree if specified

From: AngeloGioacchino Del Regno <angelogioacchino.delregno@somainline.org>

As specified in this driver, the context banks are 0x1000 apart.
Problem is that sometimes the context number (our asid) does not
match this logic and we end up using the wrong one: this starts
being a problem in the case that we need to send TZ commands
to do anything on a specific context.

For this reason, read the ASID from the DT if the property
"qcom,ctx-num" is present on the IOMMU context node.

I can confirm that it's the latter, as described by Konrad.
The inability of programming the global registers from Linux is due to the
hypervisor disallowing that (in different ways depending on the SoC's firmware
but with the same outcome: AP reset by HYP).
