[PATCH v3 1/1] iommu/vt-d: Remove caching mode check before device TLB flush

[Lu Baolu]

The Caching Mode (CM) of the Intel IOMMU indicates if the hardware
implementation caches not-present or erroneous translation-structure
entries except for the first-stage translation. The caching mode is
irrelevant to the device TLB, therefore there is no need to check it
before a device TLB invalidation operation.

Remove two caching mode checks before device TLB invalidation in the
driver. The removal of these checks doesn't change the driver's behavior
in critical map/unmap paths. Hence, there is no functionality or
performance impact, especially since commit <29b32839725f> ("iommu/vt-d:
Do not use flush-queue when caching-mode is on") has already disabled
flush-queue for caching mode. Therefore, caching mode will never call
intel_flush_iotlb_all().

Change log:
v3:
 - It turned out that the removals don't change the driver's behavior,
   hence change it from a fix patch to a cleanup one.
 - No functionality changes.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240410055823.264501-1-baolu.lu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
 - Squash two patches into a single one.
 - No functionality changes.
