Did you actually read what I said? You CANNOT access userspace in a preempt
disabled region without disabling pagefaults and handle the resulting
wreckage yourself.
I think I had missed that comment. My bad:-(
I will fix that with the code changes below. I will also double-check
your comments again to see if I miss some others.
