Are you sure that exception tables do not work on UML?
I said, I'm not sure. Can you please find out?
In arch/um/kernel/trap.c:segv() we have the mechanism for it:
else if (!is_user && arch_fixup(ip, regs))
goto out;
The interesting question is, is this by design or was it just copy&pasted from
x86
many moons ago? :)

I like such clean ups. :-)
