That's nitpicking but != IN_KERNEL would be more generic. We are exiting an
exception
and we know that the exception executes IN_KERNEL, so we want to restore any
context
(whether IN_USER, IN_GUEST, or anything added in the future) prior the
exception if that
was anything else than IN_KERNEL.

I suggest you to restore RCU before anything else. I believe cputime
accounting doesn't use RCU but we never know with all the debug/tracing
code behind, the acct accounting...
Thanks.
