[PATCH 4/4] MIPS: allow user to pass incorrect address to md command

[Antony Pavlov <antonynpavlov@gmail.com>]

This commit makes it possible to handle exception on
incorrect data access so 'md' command just show 'xxxxxxxx'
instead of crashing the system.

    barebox:/ md -l 0xa0000003+4
    a0000003: xxxxxxxx                                           ....

Without this commit we will get this

    barebox:/ md -l 0xa0000003+4
    a0000003:
    Ooops, address error on load or ifetch!

    ...

    ### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ###
