[PATCH v4 07/21] powerpc/8xx: DataAccess exception not generated by MPC8xx

[Christophe Leroy]

DataAccess exception is never generated by MPC8xx so do the job directly where
it is used to avoid an unnecessary branching.

Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@xxxxxx>

Changes in v2:
- None

Changes in v3:
- arch/powerpc/mm/fault.c uses the vector number, so make sure it understands
the new ones.

Changes in v4:
- Removing the change to mm/fault.c, faking the exception id to make mm/fault
think it comes from DataAccess.
