lwepx faults needs to be handled by KVM. With the current solution
the host kernel searches for the faulting address using its LPID context.
If a host translation is found we return to the lwepx instr instead of the
fixup ending up in an infinite loop.
Revert the commit 1d628af7 "add load inst fixup". We will address lwepx
issue in a subsequent patch without the need of fixups.
