Aneesh Kumar K.V (Arm) e13d4d9a49 dma: swiotlb: free dynamic pools from process context
swiotlb_dyn_free() is used after removing a dynamic swiotlb pool from
RCU-protected lists. It can call swiotlb_free_tlb(), which may need to
restore the encryption state of an unencrypted pool with
set_memory_encrypted() before freeing the pages.

RCU callbacks run in atomic context, but set_memory_encrypted() is not
guaranteed to be atomic-safe on all architectures. For example, page
attribute updates may allocate page tables or take sleeping locks.

Use queue_rcu_work() for dynamic pool freeing instead. This keeps the RCU
grace period before freeing a published pool, while running the actual pool
teardown from workqueue context. Use the same helper for the transient-pool
error path, since that path may also be reached from atomic DMA mapping
context.
