arm64: simplify dump_mem
Currently dump_mem attempts to dump memory in 64-bit chunks when reporting a failure in 64-bit code, or 32-bit chunks when reporting a failure in 32-bit code. We added code to handle these two cases separately in commit e147ae6d ("arm64: modify the dump mem for 64 bit addresses"). However, in all cases dump_mem is called, the failing context is a kernel rather than user context. Additionally dump_mem is assumed to only be used for kernel contexts, as internally it switches to KERNEL_DS, and its callers pass kernel stack bounds. This patch removes the redundant 32-bit chunk logic and associated compat parameter, largely reverting the aforementioned commit. For the call in __die(), the check of in_interrupt() is removed also, as __die() is only called in response to faults from the kernel's exception level, and thus the !user_mode(regs) check is sufficient. Were this not the case, the used of task_stack_page(tsk) to generate the stack bounds would be erroneous.
