Subject: powerpc/64s: Handle data breakpoints in Radix mode

From: Naveen N. Rao <naveen.n.rao@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit d89ba5353f301971dd7d2f9fdf25c4432728f38e upstream.

On Power9, trying to use data breakpoints throws the splat shown
below. This is because the check for a data breakpoint in DSISR is in
do_hash_page(), which is not called when in Radix mode.

  Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xc000000000e19218
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc0000000001155e8
  cpu 0x0: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c0000000ef1e7b20]
  pc: c0000000001155e8: find_pid_ns+0x48/0xe0

  dar: c000000000e19218
  dsisr: 400000

Move the check to handle_page_fault() so as to catch data breakpoints
in both Hash and Radix MMU modes.

We have to change the check in do_hash_page() against 0xa410 to use
0xa450, so as to include the value of (DSISR_DABRMATCH << 16).

There are two sites that call handle_page_fault() when in Radix, both
already pass DSISR in r4.
