Make use of the EXTABLE_FAULT exception table entries to write a kernel copy routine that doesn't crash the system if it encounters a machine check. Prime use case for this is to copy from large arrays of non-volatile memory used as storage. We have to use an unrolled copy loop for now because current hardware implementations treat a machine check in "rep mov" as fatal. When that is fixed we can simplify. Return type is a "bool". True means that we copied OK, false means that it didn't.
