This patch is not acceptable unless it's done cleaner. Currently we
already have 3 callbacks in do_page_fault() (kmemcheck, mmiotrace,
notifier), and this adds a fourth one.
There's another alternative - add our own exception vector
for async page faults. Not sure if that is warranted though,
especially if we already have other callbacks in do_page_fault()
and we can consolidate them.
