    gpu: nova-core: fix stack overflow in GSP memory allocation

    The `Cmdq::new` function was allocating a `PteArray` struct on the stack
    and was causing a stack overflow with 8216 bytes.

    Modify the `PteArray` to calculate and write the Page Table Entries
    directly into the coherent DMA buffer one-by-one. This reduces the stack
    usage quite a lot.

    [ * Use PteArray::entry() in LogBuffer::new(),
      * Add TODO comment to use IoView projections once available,
      * Add PTE_ARRAY_SIZE constant to avoid duplication.
