[PATCH v1] PCI: imx6: Handle the abort from user-space

[Francesco Dolcini <francesco.dolcini@toradex.com>]

From: Jason Liu <jason.hui.liu@nxp.com>

The driver install one hook to handle the external abort, but issue
is that if the abort introduced from user space code, the following
code unsigned long instr = *(unsigned long *)pc; which will created
another data-abort(page domain fault) if CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN.

The patch does not intent to use copy_from_user and then do the hack
due to the security consideration. In fact, we can just return and
report the external abort to user-space.
