parisc: Fix kernel crash with reversed copy_from_user()
The kernel module testcase (lib/test_user_copy.c) exhibited a kernel crash on parisc if the parameters for copy_from_user were reversed ("illegal reversed copy_to_user" testcase). Fix this potential crash by checking the fault handler if the faulting address is in the exception table.
