Although we don't expect to take alignment faults on access to normal
memory, misbehaving (i.e. buggy) user code can pass MMIO pointers into
system calls, leading to things like get_user accessing device memory.
Rather than OOPS the kernel, allow any exception fixups to run and
return something like -EFAULT back to userspace. This makes the
behaviour more consistent with userspace, even though applications with
access to device mappings can easily cause other issues if they try
hard enough.
