Host methods exist to do at least some of what we need, but we are not
currently pushing replay/cancels through a channel like UVM does as it's
not clear whether it's necessary in our case (UVM also updates PTEs with
the GPU).
UVM also pushes a software method for fault cancels on Pascal, seemingly
because the host methods don't appear to be sufficient. If/when we want
to push the replay/cancel on the GPU, we can re-purpose the cancellation
code here to implement that swmthd.
Keep it simple for now, until we figure out exactly what we need here.

This provides a somewhat more direct method of manipulating the GPU page
tables, which will be required to support SVM.

NVKM is currently responsible for managing the allocation of a client's
GPU address-space, but there's various use-cases (ie. HMM address-space
mirroring) where giving a client more direct control is desirable.
This commit allows for a VMM to be created where the area allocated for
NVKM is limited to a client-specified window, the remainder of address-
space is controlled directly by the client.
Leaving a window is necessary to support various internal requirements,
but also to support existing allocation interfaces as not all of the HW
is capable of working with a HMM allocation.

Aside from being a nice cleanup, these will to allow the upcoming direct
page mapping interfaces to play nicely with normal mappings.

The kbuild test bot complained about a new coccinelle warning nearby,
which sparked a discussion about the assignment to 'memory' inside of
the conditional expression. See Link below for the original post.
Fix the assignment to silence the coccinelle warning and also make the
code look a little nicer.
