I thought uvm_faultinfo was there for uvmfault_lookup() and other various
functions to omit arguments.  It's a public structure.  My intent is to
consolidate variables (state) kept in one fault, especially across re-faults.
Those state is internal to uvm_fault.  Exposing the internal seems odd to
me.

(But yes, the name is confusing.)
