In 6.5, we removed the vmalloc fault path because that can't work (see
[1] [2]). Then in order to make sure that new page table entries were
seen by the page table walker, we had to preventively emit a sfence.vma
on all harts [3] but this solution is very costly since it relies on IPI.

And even there, we could end up in a loop of vmalloc faults if a vmalloc
allocation is done in the IPI path (for example if it is traced, see
[4]), which could result in a kernel stack overflow.

Those preventive sfence.vma needed to be emitted because:

- if the uarch caches invalid entries, the new mapping may not be
  observed by the page table walker and an invalidation may be needed.
- if the uarch does not cache invalid entries, a reordered access
  could "miss" the new mapping and traps: in that case, we would actually
  only need to retry the access, no sfence.vma is required.

So this patch removes those preventive sfence.vma and actually handles
the possible (and unlikely) exceptions. And since the kernel stacks
mappings lie in the vmalloc area, this handling must be done very early
when the trap is taken, at the very beginning of handle_exception: this
also rules out the vmalloc allocations in the fault path.
