powerpc/powernv/npu: Fault user page into the hypervisor's pagetable
When a page fault happens in a GPU, the GPU signals the OS and the GPU driver calls the fault handler which populated a page table; this allows the GPU to complete an ATS request. On the bare metal get_user_pages() is enough as it adds a pte to the kernel page table but under KVM the partition scope tree does not get updated so ATS will still fail. This reads a byte from an effective address which causes HV storage interrupt and KVM updates the partition scope tree.
