x86/context-tracking: Remove exception_enter/exit() from do_page_fault()

do_page_fault(), like other exceptions, is already covered by
user_enter() and user_exit() when the exception triggers in userspace.

As explained in:

  8c84014f ("x86/entry: Remove exception_enter() from most trap handlers")

exception_enter/exit() only remained to handle possible page fault from
kernel mode while context tracking is in CONTEXT_USER mode, ie: on
kernel entry before we manage to call user_exit(). The only known
offender was do_fast_syscall_32() fetching EBP register from where
vDSO stashed it.

Meanwhile this got fixed in:

  9999c8c0 ("x86/entry: Call enter_from_user_mode() with IRQs off")

that moved enter_from_user_mode() before the call to get_user().

So we can safely remove it now.
