The pasid_lock is used to synchronize different threads from modifying a
same pasid directory entry at the same time. It causes below lockdep splat.

[   83.296538] ========================================================
[   83.296538] WARNING: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected
[   83.296539] 5.12.0-rc3+ #25 Tainted: G        W
[   83.296539] --------------------------------------------------------
[   83.296540] bash/780 just changed the state of lock:
[   83.296540] ffffffff82b29c98 (device_domain_lock){..-.}-{2:2}, at:
           iommu_flush_dev_iotlb.part.0+0x32/0x110
[   83.296547] but this lock took another, SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
[   83.296547]  (pasid_lock){+.+.}-{2:2}
[   83.296548]

           and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

[   83.296549] other info that might help us debug this:
[   83.296549] Chain exists of:
                 device_domain_lock --> &iommu->lock --> pasid_lock
[   83.296551]  Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

                *** DEADLOCK ***

Fix it by replacing the pasid_lock with an atomic exchange operation.

  - Use retry to make code neat;
  - Add a comment about no clear case, hence no race.
