powerpc/mm/hash: Handle user access of kernel address gracefully
In commit 2865d08dd9ea ("powerpc/mm: Move the DSISR_PROTFAULT sanity
check") we moved the protection fault access check before the vma
lookup. That means we hit that WARN_ON when user space accesses a
kernel address. Before that commit this was handled by find_vma() not
finding vma for the kernel address and considering that access as bad
area access.
Avoid the confusing WARN_ON and convert that to a ratelimited printk.
With the patch we now get:
