For ARC do_page_fault() is entered for MMU exceptions (TLB Miss, access violations
r/w/x etc). kprobes uses a combination of UNIMP_S and TRAP_S instructions which
don't funnel into do_page_fault().
UINMP_S leads to
instr_service
do_insterror_or_kprobe
notify_die(DIE_IERR)
kprobe_exceptions_notify
arc_kprobe_handler
TRAP_S 2 leads to
EV_Trap
do_non_swi_trap
trap_is_kprobe
notify_die(DIE_TRAP)
kprobe_exceptions_notify
arc_post_kprobe_handler
But indeed we are *not* calling into kprobe_fault_handler() - from eithet of those
paths and not sure if the existing arc*_kprobe_handler() combination does the
equivalent in tandem.
