[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/2] drm/i915: Convert EFAULT into a silent SIGBUS

EFAULT will be a possible return code where backing storage is
transient, such after it is purged by madvise. As such it is to be
expected and so should not trigger a WARN inside i915_gem_fault() but be
converted silently to SIGBUS.
