SPARC64: Loosen checks in exception table handling.
Upstream commits: 622eaec613130e6ea78f2a5d5070e3278b21cd8f
be71716e464f4ea38f08034dc666f2feb55535d9
Some parts of the kernel now do things like do *_user() accesses while
set_fs(KERNEL_DS) that fault on purpose.
See, for example, the code added by changeset
a0c1e9073ef7428a14309cba010633a6cd6719ea ("futex: runtime enable pi
and robust functionality").
That trips up the ASI sanity checking we make in do_kernel_fault().
Just remove it for now. Maybe we can add it back later with an added
conditional which looks at the current get_fs() value.
Also, because of the new futex validation init handler, we have
to accept faults in init section text as well as the normal
kernel text.
Thanks to Tom Callaway for the bug report.
