[PATCH] arm64: Handle el1 synchronous instruction aborts cleanly

[Laura Abbott]

Executing from a non-executable area gives an ugly message:

lkdtm: Performing direct entry EXEC_RODATA
lkdtm: attempting ok execution at ffff0000084c0e08
lkdtm: attempting bad execution at ffff000008880700
Bad mode in Synchronous Abort handler detected on CPU2, code 0x8400000e -- IABT (current EL)
CPU: 2 PID: 998 Comm: sh Not tainted 4.7.0-rc2+ #13

The 'IABT (current EL)' indicates the error but isn't as obvious as a
regular fault message. The increase in kernel page permissions makes
hitting this case more likely and bad mode should not be a common
ocurrence. Handle this case in the vectors to give a better message.
