dmaengine: idxd: Convert spinlock to mutex to lock evl workqueue

drain_workqueue() cannot be called safely in a spinlocked context due to
possible task rescheduling. In the multi-task scenario, calling
queue_work() while drain_workqueue() will lead to a Call Trace as
pushing a work on a draining workqueue is not permitted in spinlocked
context.
Call Trace:

</TASK>

The current implementation uses a spinlock to protect event log workqueue
and will lead to the Call Trace due to potential task rescheduling.

To address the locking issue, convert the spinlock to mutex, allowing
the drain_workqueue() to be called in a safe mutex-locked context.

This change ensures proper synchronization when accessing the event log
workqueue, preventing potential Call Trace and improving the overall
robustness of the code.

dmaengine: idxd: Remove shadow Event Log head stored in idxd

head is defined in idxd->evl as a shadow of head in the EVLSTATUS register.
There are two issues related to the shadow head:

1. Mismatch between the shadow head and the state of the EVLSTATUS
register:
If Event Log is supported, upon completion of the Enable Device command,
the Event Log head in the variable idxd->evl->head should be cleared to
match the state of the EVLSTATUS register. But the variable is not reset
currently, leading mismatch between the variable and the register state.
The mismatch causes incorrect processing of Event Log entries.

2. Unnecessary shadow head definition:
The shadow head is unnecessary as head can be read directly from the
EVLSTATUS register. Reading head from the register incurs no additional
cost because event log head and tail are always read together and
tail is already read directly from the register as required by hardware.

Remove the shadow Event Log head stored in idxd->evl to address the
mentioned issues.

dmanegine: idxd: add debugfs for event log dump

Add debugfs entry to dump the content of the event log for debugging. The
function will dump all non-zero entries in the event log. It will note
which entries are processed and which entries are still pending processing
at the time of the dump. The entries may not always be in chronological
order due to the log is a circular buffer.
