mm: add zap_vma_ptes(): a library function to unmap driver ptes

Browse source 
zap_vma_ptes() is intended to be used by drivers to unmap ptes assigned to the
driver private vmas.  This interface is similar to zap_page_range() but is
less general & less likely to be abused.

Needed by the GRU driver.
