Subject: parisc: Unbreak handling exceptions from kernel modules

From: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

commit 2ef4dfd9d9f288943e249b78365a69e3ea3ec072 upstream.

Handling exceptions from modules never worked on parisc.
It was just masked by the fact that exceptions from modules
don't happen during normal use.

When a module triggers an exception in get_user() we need to load the
main kernel dp value before accessing the exception_data structure, and
afterwards restore the original dp value of the module on exit.
