Currently, most fixups for attempting to access userspace memory are handled using _ASM_EXTABLE, which is also used for various other types of fixups (e.g. safe MSR access, IRET failures, and a bunch of other things). In order to make it possible to add special safety checks to uaccess fixups (in particular, checking whether the fault address is actually in userspace), introduce a new exception table handler ex_handler_uaccess() and wire it up to all the user access fixups (excluding ones that already use _ASM_EXTABLE_EX).

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
