Marco Elver da735962d0 kfence: add kfence.fault parameter
Add kfence.fault parameter to control the behavior when a KFENCE error is
detected (similar in spirit to kasan.fault=<mode>).

The supported modes for kfence.fault=<mode> are:

  - report: print the error report and continue (default).
  - oops: print the error report and oops.
  - panic: print the error report and panic.

In particular, the 'oops' mode offers a trade-off between no mitigation
on report and panicking outright (if panic_on_oops is not set).
