[PATCH] powerpc: kprobes: invoke handlers directly

... rather than through notify_die(), to reduce path taken for handling
kprobes. Similar to commit 6f6343f53d13 ("kprobes/x86: Call exception
handlers directly from do_int3/do_debug").

While at it, rename post_kprobe_handler() to kprobe_post_handler() for
more uniform naming.
