BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1667116

With radix, we can get page fault with DSISR_PROTFAULT value set in case of
PROT_NONE or autonuma mapping. The PROT_NONE case in handled by the vma check
where we consider the access bad. For autonuma we should fall through and fixup
the access mask correctly.

Without this patch we trigger the WARN_ON() on radix. This code moves that
WARN_ON() within a radix_enabled() check. I also moved the WARN_ON() outside
the if condition making it apply for all type of faults (exec/write/read). It
is also conditionalized for book3s, because BOOK3E can also get a PROTFAULT to
handle the D/I cache sync.
