Would be worthwhile to enable irq on/off debugging so you get the
output from print_irqtrace_events() here to see who last futzed with
interrupts. Probably a broken driver leaving interrupts off?

Dies because of non-raw siglock in do_force_sig_info:

spin_lock_irqsave(&t->sighand->siglock, flags);

and we aren't going to convert that one to raw either.

It is calling user_fault and not kernel_fault, so if you create a broken
program that intentionally tries to stomp on memory it doesn't own, can
you then reproduce it? You might not, if the culprit leaving IRQs off
only does so sporadically -- in which case you'd want to keep re-launching
the broken program in a tight loop while exercising the various drivers.
