[v6 PATCH 18/21] x86/umip: Force a page fault when unable to copy emulated result to user

Ricardo Neri

fixup_umip_exception will be called from do_general_protection. If the
former returns false, the latter will issue a SIGSEGV with SEND_SIG_PRIV.
However, when emulation is successful but the emulated result cannot be
copied to user space memory, it is more accurate to issue a SIGSEGV with
SEGV_MAPERR with the offending address. A new function is inspired in
force_sig_info_fault is introduced to model the page fault.
