[PATCH 1/5] x86/vsyscall: Reorganize the page fault emulation code

[Sohil Mehta]

With LASS, vsyscall page accesses will cause a #GP instead of a #PF.
Separate out the core vsyscall emulation code from the #PF specific
handling in preparation for the upcoming #GP emulation.

No functional change intended.
