powerpc/fault: Perform exception fixup in do_page_fault()
Exception fixup doesn't require the heady full regs saving, do it from do_page_fault() directly. For that, split bad_page_fault() in two parts. As bad_page_fault() can also be called from other places than handle_page_fault(), it will still perform exception fixup and fallback on __bad_page_fault(). handle_page_fault() directly calls __bad_page_fault() as the exception fixup will now be done by do_page_fault() Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Reviewed-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/bd07d6fef9237614cd6d318d8f19faeeadaa816b.1607491748.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu
