Adding __gmem_abort and __user_mem_abort that preserve -EAGAIN results.
These will be used by the pre-fault implementation which needs to retry
on -EAGAIN.

-EAGAIN is a pretty clear signal that another vCPU has faulted on this
memory and is in the middle of installing a mapping. Why bother with
retrying?

If we conceptually treat this thing as a synthetic stage-2 abort then it
should use the same EAGAIN handling as a literal stage-2 abort.

Thanks,
Oliver
