powerpc: Handle exceptions caused by pkey violation
Handle Data and Instruction exceptions caused by memory protection-key. The CPU will detect the key fault if the HPTE is already programmed with the key. However if the HPTE is not hashed, a key fault will not be detected by the hardware. The software will detect pkey violation in such a case.
