powerpc/mm: Pre-filter SRR1 bits before do_page_fault()
By filtering the relevant SRR1 bits in the assembly rather than in do_page_fault() itself, we avoid a conditional branch (since we already come from different path for data and instruction faults). This will allow more simplifications later Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
