[PATCH] ARM: vfp: Add vudot opcode to VFP undef hook

Add vudot opcode to the VFP undef hook to fix the
potentially undefined instruction error when the
user space executes vudot instruction.

Before this commit, kernel didn't handle the undef exception
caused by vudot and didn't enable VFP in lazy VFP context
switch code like other NEON instructions.
This led to the occurrence of the undefined instruction
error as following:

[  250.741238 ] 0904 (26902): undefined instruction: pc=004014ec
...
[  250.741287 ] PC is at 0x4014ec
