We should not be invoking do_sparc64_fault() in this case.

Instead, we call either sun4v_do_mna() or mem_address_unaligned().

Neither of which care about the values stored in the thread's fault
address and code.

If you can really trigger this code path, please post the kernel log
backtrace that happens when the BUG() triggers.  That way we can
figure out what the real problem is.

Your patch is also wrong for other reasons, it would break the
unaligned trap code paths that don't go via user_rtt_fill_64bit
fixups.
