Currently, if a user program somehow triggers an implicit supervisor access to a user address (e.g. if the kernel somehow sets LDTR to a user address), it will be incorrectly detected as a SMAP violation if AC is clear and SMAP is enabled. This is incorrect -- the error has nothing to do with SMAP. Fix the condition so that only accesses with the hardware USER bit set are diagnosed as SMAP violations. With the logic fixed, an implicit supervisor access to a user address will hit the code lower in the function that is intended to handle it even if SMAP is enabled. That logic is still a bit buggy, and later patches will clean it up. I *think* this code is still correct for WRUSS, and I've added a comment to that effect.

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.
