The new function allows updating the page tables of a memory region
after it was created. This can be used to handle page faults and page
invalidations.
Since mlx5_ib_update_mtt will need to work from within page invalidation,
so it must not block on memory allocation. It employs an atomic memory
allocation mechanism that is used as a fallback when kmalloc(GFP_ATOMIC) fails.
In order to reuse code from mlx5_ib_populate_pas, the patch splits
this function and add the needed parameters.
