In the fpsp040 code when copyin or copyout fails call
force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) instead of do_exit(SIGSEGV).
This solves a couple of problems. Because do_exit embeds the ptrace
stop PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT a complete stack frame needs to be present for
that to work correctly. There is always the information needed for a
ptrace stop where get_signal is called. So exiting with a signal
solves the ptrace issue.
Further exiting with a signal ensures that all of the threads in a
process are killed not just the thread that malfunctioned. Which
avoids confusing userspace.
To make force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) work in fpsp040_die modify the code to
save all of the registers and jump to ret_from_exception (which
ultimately calls get_signal) after fpsp040_die returns.
v2: Updated the branches to use gas's pseudo ops that automatically
calculate the best branch instruction to use for the purpose.

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.
