Gah! :double-face-palm:
I don't know how I missed this... (yes, I do)

As always, thanks Michael!
I think we can optimize this a bit more to eliminate the loads in
handle_page_fault. Here's an incremental patch above your changes for
-next, this time boot-tested with radix and disable_radix.

[PATCH] powerpc64/exceptions64s: Eliminate a few un-necessary memory loads
In do_hash_page(), we re-load DSISR from stack though it is still present
in register r4. Eliminate the memory load by preserving this register.
Furthermore, handler_page_fault() reloads DAR and DSISR from memory and
this is only required if we fall through from do_hash_page().
Otherwise, r3 and r4 already have DAR and DSISR loaded. Re-use those
and have do_hash_page() reload those registers when falling-through.
