3.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>
commit 9955ac47f4ba1c95ecb6092aeaefb40a22e99268 upstream.
Rather than completely killing the kernel if we receive an esr value we can't deal with in the el0 handlers, send the process a SIGILL and log the esr value in the hope that we can debug it. If we receive a bad esr from el1, we'll die() as before.
