Subject: arm64: kernel: Save and restore UAO and addr_limit on exception entry

From: James Morse <james.morse@arm.com>

commit e19a6ee2460bdd0d0055a6029383422773f9999a upstream.

If we take an exception while at EL1, the exception handler inherits
the original context's addr_limit and PSTATE.UAO values. To be consistent
always reset addr_limit and PSTATE.UAO on (re-)entry to EL1. This
prevents accidental re-use of the original context's addr_limit.

Based on a similar patch for arm from Russell King.
