That isn't how the HMM side is supposed to work, this API is just
giving the one and only P2P page that is backing the device private.

The providing driver shouldn't be doing any p2pdma operations to check
feasibility.

Otherwise we are doing p2p operations twice on every page, doesn't
make sense.

We've consistently been saying the P2P is done during the DMA mapping
side only, I think we should stick with that. Failing P2P is an
exception case, and the fix is to trigger page migration which the
general hmm code knows how to do. So calling hmm range fault again
makes sense to me. I wouldn't want drivers open coding the migration
logic in the new callback.
