[Intel-xe] [PATCH] drm/xe: Enable scratch page when page fault is enabled

i915 can use scratch page even when page fault is enabled, this patch
is trying to port this feature over.

The current i915 solution changes page table directly which may be hard
to make to upstream, so a more complex solution is needed to apply to the
current Xe framework if following the existing i915 solution.

This patch is trying to make the minimum impact to the existing driver,
but still enable the scratch page support.

So, the idea is to bind a scratch vma if the page fault is from an
invalid access. This patch is taking advantage of null pte at this
point, we may introduce a special vma for scratch vma if needed.
After the bind, the user app can continue to run without causing a
fatal failure or reset and stop.

In case the app will bind this scratch vma to a valid address, it will
fail the bind, this patch will handle the failre and unbind the scrach
vma[s], so that the user binding will be retried to the valid address.

This patch only kicks in when there is a failure for both page fault
and bind, so it should has no impact to the exiating code path. On
another hand, it uses actual page tables instead of special scratch
page tables, so it enables potential not to invalidate TLBs when doing
unbind if all upper layer page tables are still being used.

tested on new scratch igt tests which will be sent out for review.
