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

  nmi+0x8e/0xd7

While __get_user_pages_fast() is IRQ-safe, it calls access_ok(),
which warns on:

  WARN_ON_ONCE(!in_task() && !pagefault_disabled())

Peter suggested disabling page faults around __get_user_pages_fast(),
which gets rid of the warning in access_ok() call.
