Alex Waterman 98da3f8eed gpu: nvgpu: Cleanup usage of bypass_smmu ...

The GPU has multiple different operating modes in respect to IOMMU'ability.
As such there needs to be a clean way to tell the driver whether it is
IOMMU'able or not. This state also does not always reflect what is possible:
all becasue the GPU can generate IOMMU'ed memory requests doesn't mean it
wants to.

The nvgpu_iommuable() API has now existed for a little while which is a
useful way to convey whether nvgpu should consider the GPU as IOMMU'able.
However, there is also the g->mm.bypass_smmu flag which used to be able to
override what the GPU decided it should do. Typically it was assigned
the same value as nvgpu_iommuable() but that was not necessarily a
requirment.

This patch removes all the usages of g->mm.bypass_smmu and instead uses the
nvgpu_iommuable() function. All places where the check against
g->mm.bypass_smmu have been replaced with nvgpu_iommuable(). The code
should now be much cleaner.

Subsequently other checks can also be placed in the nvgpu_iommuable()
function. For example, when NVLINK comes online and the GPU should no
longer consider DMA addresses and instead use scatter-gather lists
directly the ngpu_iommuable() function will be able to check the state of
NVLINK and then act accordingly.
