ARM: Adding a bogus fault that does nothing.

This fault can used to flush the pipe, not including the faulting instruction.

The particular case I needed this was for a self-modifying code. It needed to
drain the store queue and force the following instruction to refetch from
icache. DCCMVAC cp15 mcr instruction is modified to raise this fault.
