Although the parameter 'cmd' is always passed by a local array variable, and only this function modifies it, the compiler does not know this. The compiler almost always reads the value of cmd[i] from memory rather than directly using the value cached in the register. This generates many useless instruction operations and affects the performance to some extent.
To guide the compiler for proper optimization, 'cmd' is defined as a local array variable, marked as register, and copied to the output parameter at a time when the function is returned. The optimization effect can be viewed by running the "size arm-smmu-v3.o" command.
