Subject: x86/fault: Don't try to recover from an implicit supervisor access
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ebb53e2597e2dc7637ab213df006e99681b6ee25;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

x86/fault: Don't try to recover from an implicit supervisor access

This avoids a situation in which we attempt to apply various fixups
that are not intended to handle implicit supervisor accesses from
user mode if we screw up in a way that causes this type of fault.
