[PATCH 2/5] powerpc/mm: split store_updates_sp() in two parts in do_page_fault()

[Christophe Leroy]

Only the get_user() in store_updates_sp() has to be done outside
the mm semaphore. All the comparison can be done within the semaphore,
so only when really needed.

As we got a DSI exception, the address pointed by regs->nip is
obviously valid, otherwise we would have had a instruction exception.
So __get_user() can be used instead of get_user()
