[PATCH] arch/arm64/mm/fault: Implement exceptions tracepoints

[Balbir Singh <balbirs@nvidia.com>]

x86 and riscv provide trace points for page-faults (user and kernel
tracepoints). Some scripts [1],[2] rely on these trace points. The
tracepoint is useful for tracking faults and their reasons.

Adding the tracepoints is simple and straight-forward. For arm64
use esr as error code and untagged memory address as addr.

Tested at my end with a kernel-compile and running a user space
program to check that the trace points are indeed reported.
