Andy Lutomirski 7d8d8cfdee x86/doublefault/32: Rewrite the x86_32 #DF handler and unify with 64-bit
The old x86_32 doublefault_fn() was old and crufty, and it did not
even try to recover.  do_double_fault() is much nicer.  Rewrite the
32-bit double fault code to sanitize CPU state and call
do_double_fault().  This is mostly an exercise i386 archaeology.

With this patch applied, 32-bit double faults get a real stack trace,
just like 64-bit double faults.

[ mingo: merged the patch to a later kernel base. ]

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.
