perf/core: Disable page faults when getting phys address
We hit following warning when running tests on kernel compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y: WARNING: CPU: 19 PID: 4472 at mm/gup.c:2381 __get_user_pages_fast+0x1a4/0x200 CPU: 19 PID: 4472 Comm: dummy Not tainted 5.6.0-rc6+ #3 RIP: 0010:__get_user_pages_fast+0x1a4/0x200 ...
