[PATCH v4 10/21] powerpc/64s/hash: improve context tracking of hash faults

This moves the 64s/hash context tracking from hash_page_mm() to
__do_hash_fault(), so it's no longer called by OCXL / SPU
accelerators, which was certainly the wrong thing to be doing,
because those callers are not low level interrupt handlers, so
should have entered a kernel context tracking already.
Then remain in kernel context for the duration of the fault,
rather than enter/exit for the hash fault then enter/exit for
the page fault, which is pointless.
Even still, calling exception_enter/exit in __do_hash_fault seems
questionable because that's touching per-cpu variables, tracing,
etc., which might have been interrupted by this hash fault or
themselves cause hash faults. But maybe I miss something because
hash_page_mm very deliberately calls trace_hash_fault too, for
example. So for now go with it, it's no worse than before, in this
regard.
