[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 56/56] parisc: Avoid calling faulthandler_disabled() twice

[ Upstream commit 9e9d4b460f23bab61672eae397417d03917d116c ]
In handle_interruption(), we call faulthandler_disabled() to check whether the
fault handler is not disabled. If the fault handler is disabled, we immediately
call do_page_fault(). It then calls faulthandler_disabled(). If disabled,
do_page_fault() attempts to fixup the exception by jumping to no_context:
no_context:
if (!user_mode(regs) && fixup_exception(regs)) {
return;
}
parisc_terminate("Bad Address (null pointer deref?)", regs, code, address);
Apart from the error messages, the two blocks of code perform the same
function.
We can avoid two calls to faulthandler_disabled() by a simple revision
to the code in handle_interruption().
Note: I didn't try to fix the formatting of this code block.
