[patch 01/52] [PATCH] Improve address space check.

[Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: 100-mm-check-space.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 8147 bytes --]

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

A data access in access-register mode always is a user mode access,
the code to inspect the access-registers can be removed. The second
change is to use a different test to check for no-execute fault.
The third change is to pass the translation exception identification
as parameter, in theory the trans_exc_code in the lowcore could have
been overwritten by the time the call to check_space from do_no_context
is done.
