AF and WP faults are common occurrences. and they can significantly 
impact SMMU performance. If we can determine exactly at which address 
and what type of page fault occurred, it would help us avoid SVA page 
fault events through other means. Also, I don't see any separate 
accounting for page fault events in the SVA flow.
