[AVR32] optimize pagefault path
Avoid the costly notifier list in the pagefault path and call the kprobes code directly. The same change went into the 2.6.22 cycle for powerpc, 2s390 and sparc64 already. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Haavard Skinnemoen <hskinnemoen@atmel.com>
