Looks like you indeed have no choice but move it down, though I dislike
the label name :-)

Look at how we do a similar thing in exceptions-64.S, we basically just
don't use START_EXCEPTION at that location. We put a .=xxxx and a
branch, and use the real exception name at the target label.

Or just name it "pit_exception" if you want to keep things simple. I
just don't like "pit_longer" :-)

Any reason to comment that out ? Better off also branching out of line
to a stub similar to the PIT one that then calls unknown_exception. That
way if it triggers by accident, you'll get a clean trace.

Move it out of line too please. When a given vector "slot" gets crowded,
I prefer moving everything in it out of line to keep things consistent.
