arm64: fault: Route pte translation faults via do_translation_fault
(2017-09-29 16:47:40 +0100)
----------------------------------------------------------------
arm64 fixes:
- SPsel register initialisation on reset as the architecture defines its
state as unknown
- Use READ_ONCE when dereferencing pmd_t pointers to avoid race
conditions in page_vma_mapped_walk() (or fast GUP) with concurrent
modifications of the page table
- Avoid invoking the mm fault handling code for kernel addresses (check
against TASK_SIZE) which would otherwise result in calling
might_sleep() in atomic context
----------------------------------------------------------------
