Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Fix DABR match on hash based systems

Commit 398a719d34a1 ("powerpc/mm: Update bits used to skip hash_page") mistakenly dropped the DSISR_DABRMATCH bit from the mask of bit tested to skip trying to hash a page.

As a result, the DABR matches would no longer be detected.

This adds it back. We open code it in the 2 places where it matters rather than fold it into DSISR_BAD_FAULT_32S/64S because this isn't technically a bad fault and while we would never hit it with the current code, I prefer if page_fault_is_bad() didn't trigger on these.

Fixes 398a719d34a1 ("powerpc/mm: Update bits used to skip hash_page")
