[ Upstream commit b5e86a95541cea737394a1da967df4cd4d8f7182 ]
Queued invalidation wait descriptor status is volatile in that IOMMU hardware writes the data upon completion.
Use READ_ONCE() to prevent compiler optimizations which ensures memory reads every time. As a side effect, READ_ONCE() also enforces strict types and may add an extra instruction. But it should not have negative performance impact since we use cpu_relax anyway and the extra time(by adding an instruction) may allow IOMMU HW request cacheline ownership easier.
e.g. gcc 12.3 BEFORE: 81 38 ad de 00 00 cmpl $0x2,(%rax)
AFTER (with READ_ONCE()) 772f: 8b 00 mov (%rax),%eax 7731: 3d ad de 00 00 cmp $0x2,%eax //status data is 32 bit
