Steven Rostedt b6e3796834 powerpc: Have patch_instruction detect faults 
For ftrace to use the patch_instruction code, it needs to check for
faults on write. Ftrace updates code all over the kernel, and we need to
know if code is updated or not due to protections that are placed on
some portions of the kernel. If ftrace does not detect a fault, it will
error later on, and it will be much more difficult to find the problem.

By changing patch_instruction() to detect faults, then ftrace will be
able to make use of it too.
