Right now, we do some fancy parts of the exception entry path while SS
might have a nonzero base: we fill in regs->ss and regs->sp, and we
consider switching to the kernel stack. This results in regs->ss and
regs->sp referring to a non-flat stack and it may result in
overflowing the entry stack. The former issue means that we can try to
call iret_exc on a non-flat stack, which doesn't work.
Tested with selftests/x86/sigreturn_32.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
