x86, mm: fault.c, refactor/simplify the is_prefetch() code

Impact: no functionality changed

Factor out the opcode checker into a helper inline.

The code got a tiny bit smaller:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   4632	     32	     24	   4688	   1250	fault.o.before
   4618	     32	     24	   4674	   1242	fault.o.after

And it got cleaner / easier to review as well.
