kfd process kref count(process->ref) is initialized to 1 by kref_init. After
it is created not need to increaes its kref. Instad add kfd process kref at kfd
process mmu notifier allocation since we decrease the ref at free_notifier of
mmu_notifier_ops, so pair them.

When user process opens kfd node multiple times the kfd process kref is
increased each time to balance kfd node close operation.

this cb should only allocate the notifier (here it returns an existing notifier ),
so I am not sure this is a better place to increase the kref, it seems coupling
two low correlated routines.

kref is decreased in the free notifier, but not mean it has to be increased in alloc notifier.

Who referring kfd process should also un-referrer it after finish. Any client should not do un-refer if it did not refer. That keeps balance in clean way.

The current way is using  mmu's free notifier to unref kfref that was added by kfd process creation. Ex: if not use mmu notifier there would be extra kref that prevent release kfd process.

The final kref is same. The patch just makes the balance in a logical way.
