    Two helpers added. One checks if zone device page is generic

The function name here is confusing. Theoretically as long as page's zone number is ZONE_DEVICE, then the page is a device page. You put the condition more strict below just because the kfd svm implementation only uses MEMORY_DEVICE_PRIVATE/GENERIC. But MEMORY_DEVICE_FS_DAX and MEMORY_DEVICE_PCI_P2PDMA is also device memory (compared to normal cpu system memory).
