Dave Hansen 550e12ef14 x86/fpu: Delay instruction pointer fixup until after warning
[ Upstream commit 1cec9ac2d071cfd2da562241aab0ef701355762a ]

Right now, if XRSTOR fails a console message like this is be printed:

	Bad FPU state detected at restore_fpregs_from_fpstate+0x9a/0x170, reinitializing FPU registers.

However, the text location (...+0x9a in this case) is the instruction
*AFTER* the XRSTOR. The highlighted instruction in the "Code:" dump
also points one instruction late.

The reason is that the "fixup" moves RIP up to pass the bad XRSTOR and
keep on running after returning from the #GP handler. But it does this
fixup before warning.

The resulting warning output is nonsensical because it looks like the
non-FPU-related instruction is #GP'ing.

Do not fix up RIP until after printing the warning. Do this by using
the more generic and standard ex_handler_default().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
