Linux kernel source tree

In most cases, our exception entry assembly branches to C handlers with a BL instruction, but in cases where we do not expect to return, we use B instead. While this is correct today, it means that backtraces for fatal exceptions miss the entry assembly (as the LR is stale at the point we call C code), while non-fatal exceptions have the entry assembly in the LR. In subsequent patches, we will need the LR to be set in these cases in order to backtrace reliably. This patch updates these sites to use a BL, ensuring consistency, and preparing for backtrace rework. An ASM_BUG() is added after each of these new BLs, which both catches unexpected returns, and ensures that the LR value doesn't point to another function label.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
