Peter Zijlstra c026b3591e x86, mm, perf: Allow recursive faults from interrupts
Waiman managed to trigger a PMI while in a emulate_vsyscall() fault,
the PMI in turn managed to trigger a fault while obtaining a stack
trace. This triggered the sig_on_uaccess_error recursive fault logic
and killed the process dead.

Fix this by explicitly excluding interrupts from the recursive fault
logic.
