Subject: [PATCH] vmmon: use get_user_pages to get page PFN

As a side effect of mainline commit 0d940a9b270b ("mm/pgtable: allow
pte_offset_map[_lock]() to fail") in 6.5-rc1, __pte_offset_map(), called by
pte_offset_map(), is no longer exported.

As this function is only used to get PFN from a virtual address, is is more
appropriate (and reliable) to use get_user_pages infrastructure instead.

Note: this is an experimental solution, more research will be needed to
indentify the most appropriate get_user_pages_*() function and flags.
