If we want to make hook_fault_code() visible, we at least also need
an unhook_fault_code() function that removes the fault handler
when unloading the module, and preferably does so in a safe way.

The usage of hook_fault_code() at least in the imx driver is also
problematic, as it just ignores all "imprecise external abort"
faults, whether they come from PCI or not.
