Merge branch 'x86-traps' (trap handling from Andy Lutomirski)
Merge x86-64 iret fixes from Andy Lutomirski:
"This addresses the following issues:
- an unrecoverable double-fault triggerable with modify_ldt.
- invalid stack usage in espfix64 failed IRET recovery from IST
context.
- invalid stack usage in non-espfix64 failed IRET recovery from IST
context.
It also makes a good but IMO scary change: non-espfix64 failed IRET
will now report the correct error. Hopefully nothing depended on the
old incorrect behavior, but maybe Wine will get confused in some
obscure corner case"
* emailed patches from Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net>:
x86_64, traps: Rework bad_iret
x86_64, traps: Stop using IST for #SS
