The kernel-mode software-check exception path calls die() without
performing the entry bookkeeping used by other kernel trap handlers.
die() invokes diagnostics and notifiers which need the corresponding
RCU and tracing state established.
Wrap the kernel fault handling with irqentry_nmi_enter() and
irqentry_nmi_exit(), following the existing kernel trap paths.
