Ugh, you're seriously supporting this on 32-bit?  Please test double
fault handling very carefully -- the CET interaction with task
switches is so gross that I didn't even bother reading the spec except
to let the architects know that they were a but nuts to support it at
all.

static_cpu_has(), please.  But your handling here is odd -- I think
that we should at least warn if we get #CP with CET disable.

I realize you copied this from elsewhere in the file, but please
either delete these assignments to error_code and trap_nr or at least
hoist them out of the if block.

Does this notify_die() check serve any purpose at all?  Removing all
the old ones would be a project, but let's try not to add new callers.

What if error_code == 0?  Is that also invalid?

This is definitely wrong for the feature-disabled, !user_mode case.

Also, are you planning on enabling CET for kernel code too?
