iommu/vt-d: Remove caching mode check before device TLB flush
The Caching Mode (CM) of the Intel IOMMU indicates if the hardware implementation caches not-present or erroneous translation-structure entries except for the first-stage translation. The caching mode is irrelevant to the device TLB, therefore there is no need to check it before a device TLB invalidation operation. Remove two caching mode checks before device TLB invalidation in the driver. The removal of these checks doesn't change the driver's behavior in critical map/unmap paths. Hence, there is no functionality or performance impact, especially since commit <29b32839725f> ("iommu/vt-d: Do not use flush-queue when caching-mode is on") has already disabled flush-queue for caching mode. Therefore, caching mode will never call intel_flush_iotlb_all().
