CVE-2025-21939

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/xe/hmm: Don't dereference struct page pointers without notifier lock

The pnfs that we obtain from hmm_range_fault() point to pages that
we don't have a reference on, and the guarantee that they are still
in the cpu page-tables is that the notifier lock must be held and the
notifier seqno is still valid.

So while building the sg table and marking the pages accesses / dirty
we need to hold this lock with a validated seqno.

However, the lock is reclaim tainted which makes
sg_alloc_table_from_pages_segment() unusable, since it internally
allocates memory.

Instead build the sg-table manually. For the non-iommu case
this might lead to fewer coalesces, but if that's a problem it can
be fixed up later in the resource cursor code. For the iommu case,
the whole sg-table may still be coalesced to a single contigous
device va region.

This avoids marking pages that we don't own dirty and accessed, and
it also avoid dereferencing struct pages that we don't own.

v2:
- Use assert to check whether hmm pfns are valid (Matthew Auld)
- Take into account that large pages may cross range boundaries
  (Matthew Auld)

v3:
- Don't unnecessarily check for a non-freed sg-table. (Matthew Auld)
- Add a missing up_read() in an error path. (Matthew Auld)
