This can also be done with adding call to cxl_ack_ae(ctx) at the end of
cxl_handle_fault().

Removing this check will force call to copro_handle_mm_fault even for
nmmu reported errors that only need to be communicated to the AFU and
not handled by mm subsystem as such.

Optional: With this change the function has become a good candidate for
being inlined or even converting to a macro.
