For 32-bit, we need to come back to save NV GPRs. Certainly the 64s code 
stays in do_page_fault because it always saves them.

Now I don't think that's the nicest thing to go in and out of the 
interrupt wrappers twice in these cases, but for a first pass I think 
it's okay. Either we could add another type of error-case wrapper that
does some adjustment if it becomes necessary, or we find a nice way to
save NVGPRs from C code.

If we could somehow parse unwind data to find where the NVGPRs are saved 
by the compiler and generate a little code stub to load them out, would
be the ultimate :) Maybe one day...

Thanks,
Nick
