Rob, on A740 and A8x GPU, KMD is mapping GMEM at 16MB and 64MB offsets
respectively. So returning 0 here to userspace for those GPUs doesn't
seem right for those GPUs.

I believe userspace is interested in the aperture base address
configured in UCHE_GMEM_RANGE/UCHE_CCHE_GC_GMEM_RANGE registers so that
it can compute the IOVA to read GMEM via UCHE.
