On exception exit, we restore the previous context tracking state based on the regs of the interrupted frame. Iff that frame is in user mode as stated by user_mode() helper, we restore the context tracking user mode. However there is a tiny chunck of low level arch code after we pass through user_enter() and until the CPU eventually resumes userspace. If an exception happens in this tiny area, exception_enter() correctly exits the context tracking user mode but exception_exit() won't restore it because of the value returned by user_mode(regs). As a result we may return to userspace with the wrong context tracking state. To fix this, change exception_enter() to return the context tracking state prior to its call and pass this saved state to exception_exit(). This restores the real context tracking state of the interrupted frame. (May be this patch was suggested to me, I don't recall exactly. If so, sorry for the missing credit).
