commit d300627c6a536 ("powerpc/6xx: Handle DABR match before
calling do_page_fault") breaks non 6xx platforms.

[    6.029556] Failed to execute /init (error -14)
[    6.034623] Starting init: /bin/sh exists but couldn't execute it
(error -14)
[    6.041489] Kernel panic - not syncing: No working init found.  Try
passing init= option to kernel. See Linux
Documentation/admin-guide/init.rst for guidance.
[    6.055518] CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: init Not tainted
4.13.0-rc3-s3k-dev-00143-g7aa62e972a56 #56
[    6.063745] Call Trace:
[    6.066224] [c60f1ed0] [c001a624] panic+0x108/0x250 (unreliable)
[    6.072140] [c60f1f30] [c0002640] rootfs_mount+0x0/0x58
[    6.077311] [c60f1f40] [c000cb80] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0x64
[    6.083405] Rebooting in 180 seconds..

This is because in handle_page_fault(), the call to do_page_fault()
has been mistakenly enclosed inside an #ifdef CONFIG_6xx

Fixes: d300627c6a536 ("powerpc/6xx: Handle DABR match before
calling do_page_fault")
