Subject: iommu/arm-smmu: remove pgtable_page_{c,d}tor()
commit 93b14135cf24668b45eb57348312b627a8539bc4 upstream.
If split page table lock for PTE tables is enabled (CONFIG_SPLIT_PTLOCK_CPUS
<=NR_CPUS) pgtable_page_ctor() leads to non-atomic allocation for ptlock with
a spinlock held, resulting in:

Split page tables lock is not used in the driver. In fact, page tables are
guarded with domain lock, so remove calls to pgtable_page_{c,d}tor().
