_ASM_EXTABLE_UA is a general exception entry to record the exception fixup for all exception spots between kernel and user space access. To enable recovery from machine checks while coping data from user addresses it is necessary to be able to distinguish the places that are looping copying data from those that copy a single byte/word/etc. Add a new macro _ASM_EXTABLE_CPY and use it in place of _ASM_EXTABLE_UA in the copy functions. Record the exception reason number to regs->ax at ex_handler_uaccess which is used to check MCE triggered. The new fixup routine ex_handler_copy() is almost an exact copy of ex_handler_uaccess() The difference is that it sets regs->ax to the trap number. Following patches use this to avoid trying to copy remaining bytes from the tail of the copy and possibly hitting the poison again. New mce.kflags bit MCE_IN_KERNEL_COPYIN will be used by mce_severity() calculation to indicate that a machine check is recoverable because the kernel was copying from user space. Signed-off-by:
