vgsp-sema: derive and register the guest scrubber finish-payload words
The X DDX's NV_ESC_RM_VID_HEAP_CONTROL (ioctl 0x4a) allocates scrubbed pages through the guest PMA's CeUtils scrubber channel; it waits on the channel buffer's finish payload (channelWaitForFinishPayload), which the host's svc_scrub_pass was supposed to author but never did because the guest scanner had not registered fin_pa/hsem_pa (pa_ok=0 in every run). The channel buffer is pb + GPFIFO + sema + finish, and the scrubber's GPFIFO VA is pb + pbSize, so the host semaphore is gpfifo_va + entries*8 and the finish payload is that +4. Resolve that VA through the learned map or the VAS walk at the first pass and register the PAs in place (SYS aperture only). r1665: `scrub geometry hsem_va=0x12006c000 fin_va=0x12006c004 -> hsem_pa=0x10f46a000 fin_pa=0x10f46a004`, then `scrub author put=1..11` and the X server left the kernel scrub spin entirely: perf on Xorg is now 100 % in nvidia_drv.so+0xaee70 (a DDX userspace loop, next wall) with no _nv018351rm/_nv015102rm samples.
