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

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.

* When an STE changes EATS_TRANS, the sequencing code in the attach

* and so we don't care about the sequencing of EATS. The purpose of
* EATS_TRANS is to protect the system from hostile untrusted devices
* that issue ATS when the PCI config space is disabled. However, if
* EATS_TRANS is being changed, then we must have already trusted the
* device as the EATS_TRANS security block is being disabled.
*
* Note: now the EATS_TRANS update is moved to the first entry_set().
* Changing S2S and EATS might transiently result in S2S=1 and EATS=1
* which is a bad STE (see "5.2 Stream Table Entry"). In such a case,
* we can't do a hitless update. Also, it should not be added to the
* safe bits with STRTAB_STE_1_EATS_S1CHK, because EATS=0b11 would be
* effectively an errant 0b00 configuration.
