INTO (for overflow), not INT-zero.  However...

... neither OF nor BP will ever enter fred_intx() because they're type
SWEXC not SWINT.

SWINT is strictly the INT $imm8 instruction.

array_index_mask_nospec()

This is easy for an attacker to abuse, to install non-function-pointer
targets into the indirect predictor.

Depending on what you want to do with BP/OF vs fred_intx(), this may
need adjusting.

If you are cross-checking type and vector, then these should be rejected
for not being of type HWEXC.

CONFIG_X86_CET

Userspace can use CET even if the kernel isn't compiled with IBT, so
this exception needs handling.

PRIV_SWEXC should have it's own function and not fall into fred_exception().

It is strictly only the ICEBP (INT1) instruction at the moment, so
should fall into bad_type() for any vector other than X86_TRAP_DB.
