[PATCH v2 4/5] powerpc/fault: Perform exception fixup in do_page_fault()

Exception fixup doesn't require the heady full regs saving,
do it from do_page_fault() directly.

For that, split bad_page_fault() in two parts.

As bad_page_fault() can also be called from other places than
handle_page_fault(), it will still perform exception fixup and
fallback on __bad_page_fault().

handle_page_fault() directly calls __bad_page_fault() as the
exception fixup will now be done by do_page_fault()
