For #GP, we do:
do_general_protection(struct pt_regs *regs, long error_code)
{
...
if (!user_mode(regs)) {
if (fixup_exception(regs, X86_TRAP_GP, error_code, 0))
return;
Where the 0 is 'fault_addr'. I'm not sure any other way that
ex_handler_uaccess() can get called with trapnr == X86_TRAP_GP. 0 is
canonical last I checked, which would make this patch a bit academic. :)
