drm/i915: Use memcpy_from_page() in gt/uc/intel_uc_fw.c
The use of kmap_atomic() is being deprecated in favor of
kmap_local_page()[1], and this patch converts the call from
kmap_atomic() to kmap_local_page().
The main difference between atomic and local mappings is that local
mappings doesn't disable page faults or preemption (the preemption is
disabled for !PREEMPT_RT case, otherwise it only disables migration).
With kmap_local_page(), we can avoid the often unwanted side effect of
unnecessary page faults or preemption disables.
In drm/i915/gt/uc/intel_us_fw.c, the function intel_uc_fw_copy_rsa()
just use the mapping to do memory copy so it doesn't need to disable
pagefaults and preemption for mapping. Thus the local mapping without
atomic context (not disable pagefaults / preemption) is enough.
Therefore, intel_uc_fw_copy_rsa() is a function where the use of
memcpy_from_page() with kmap_local_page() in place of memcpy() with
kmap_atomic() is correctly suited.
Convert the calls of memcpy() with kmap_atomic() / kunmap_atomic() to
memcpy_from_page() which uses local mapping to copy.
