x86/fault: Fix AMD erratum #91 errata fixup for user code
commit 35f1c89 upstream. The recent rework of probe_kernel_address() and its conversion to get_kernel_nofault() inadvertently broke is_prefetch(). Before this change, probe_kernel_address() was used as a sloppy "read user or kernel memory" helper, but it doesn't do that any more. The new get_kernel_nofault() reads *kernel* memory only, which completely broke is_prefetch() for user access. Adjust the code to the correct accessor based on access mode. The manual address bounds check is no longer necessary, since the accessor helpers (get_user() / get_kernel_nofault()) do the right thing all by themselves. As a bonus, by using the correct accessor, the open-coded address bounds check is not needed anymore.
