parisc: Don't call faulthandler_disabled() in do_page_fault()
It is dangerous to call faulthandler_disabled() when user_mode(regs) is true. The task pagefault_disabled counter is racy and it is not updated atomically on parisc. As a result, calling faulthandler_disabled() may cause erroneous termination. We now handle execption fixups and termination when user_mode(regs) is false in handle_interruption(). Thus, we can just remove the faulthandler_disabled() check from do_page_fault(). Signed-off-by: John David Anglin <dave.anglin@bell.net> Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
