ARC: [plat-eznps] Handle user memory error same in simulation and silicon 

On ARC700 (and nSIM), user mode memory error triggers an L2 interrupt
which is handled gracefully by kernel (or it tries to despite this being
imprecise, and error could get charged to kernel itself). The offending
task is killed and kernel moves on.

NPS hardware however raises a Machine Check exception for same error
which is NOT recoverable by kernel.

This patch aligns kernel handling for nSIM case, to same as hardware by
overriding the default user space bus error handler.

On the real chip of the NPS, user memory errors are handled
as a machine check exception, which is fatal, whereas on
simulator platform for NPS, is handled as a Level 2 interrupt
(just a stock ARC700) which is recoverable. This option makes
simulator behave like hardware.
