Andy Lutomirski ca24728378 x86/fault: Don't run fixups for SMAP violations
A SMAP-violating kernel access is not a recoverable condition.  Imagine
kernel code that, outside of a uaccess region, dereferences a pointer to
the user range by accident.  If SMAP is on, this will reliably generate
as an intentional user access.  This makes it easy for bugs to be
overlooked if code is inadequately tested both with and without SMAP.

This was discovered because BPF can generate invalid accesses to user
memory, but those warnings only got printed if SMAP was off. Make it so
that this type of error will be discovered with SMAP on as well.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
