On qcom msm8998, writing to the last context bank of lpass_q6_smmu
(base address 0x05100000) produces a system freeze & reboot.

The hardware/hypervisor reports 13 context banks for the LPASS SMMU
on msm8998, but only the first 12 are accessible...
Override the number of context banks

Specifically, the crashes occur here:

	qsmmu->bypass_cbndx = smmu->num_context_banks - 1;
	arm_smmu_cb_write(smmu, qsmmu->bypass_cbndx, ARM_SMMU_CB_SCTLR, 0);

and here:

	arm_smmu_write_context_bank(smmu, i);
	arm_smmu_cb_write(smmu, i, ARM_SMMU_CB_FSR, ARM_SMMU_CB_FSR_FAULT);

It is likely that FW reserves the last context bank for its own use,
thus a simple work-around is: DON'T USE IT in Linux.

If we decrease the number of context banks, last one will be "hidden".
