SPARC M7 processor introduces a new feature - Application Data
Integrity (ADI). ADI allows MMU to catch rogue accesses to memory.
When a rogue access occurs, MMU blocks the access and raises an
exception. In response to the exception, kernel sends the offending
task a SIGSEGV with si_code that indicates the nature of exception.
This patch adds three new signal codes specific to ADI feature:
1. ADI is not enabled for the address and task attempted to access
memory using ADI
2. Task attempted to access memory using wrong ADI tag and caused
a deferred exception.
3. Task attempted to access memory using wrong ADI Ttag and caused
a precise exception.
