In undefined_init, the KDTRACE_HOOK should be after und_ev.ev_count++.

Digression ahead.

I wonder if it wouldn't be better to use a BKPT instruction on armv5t
and later and avoid the undefined trap, and use a prefetch abort with
a known FSR code.  For pre-armv5t, we'd need a undefined handler but
we have one of those now.  BKPT instructions have either a 16-bit (ARM)
or 8-bit (thumb) value encoded within.  

But that can be tackled later.
