Sashiko pointed out several issues in the iommufd invalidation path, which
also prompted a rework of the ARM SMMUv3 vIOMMU invalidation handler:

 - entry_len is user-controlled and unbounded, so the trailing-zero check
   for its forward-compat fields can scan gigabytes of user memory without
   yielding, long enough to trip the soft-lockup watchdog.

 - A large entry_num drives a backend's per-entry invalidation loop with no
   reschedule, e.g. the VT-d nested path, pinning the CPU.

 - The full-array copy helper copies the array twice on the equal-size fast
   path: once in bulk, then again entry by entry.

 - arm_vsmmu_cache_invalidate() reports converted-but-unsubmitted commands
   as handled on its error paths.

 - It sizes a single kernel allocation from the user-controlled entry_num.

 - It rejects an empty-array data_type probe that the uAPI allows.

Fix them properly.
