signals, sparc: Add signal codes for ADI violations
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 tag and caused a precise exception.
