KNI calls `get_user_pages_remote()` API which is using `FOLL_TOUCH`
flag, but `FOLL_TOUCH` is no more in public headers since v6.3,
causing a build error.
`FOLL_*` defines in Linux kernel first moved to another header [1],
later some of them moved to memory subsystem internal header [2] for 6.3
Quickly fixing build error by defining it in KNI compatibility header
when it is not defined in Linux headers.
There is a risk in this approach that if Linux kernel updates flags
value and it diverges from the value defined in KNI.
