I haven't (yet) changed exc_handler, but I did post that annotation fix
as a patch against patch 3 in the series, when actually it should be
applied as as fixup to patch 2.

I *am* cleaning up exc_handler in patch 3 though, for a more 'warm and
fuzzy' experience on int3 rather than dumping the full register set. So
I'll repost it from patch 2 against the new tip/x86/boot, including the
annotation fix in the right place.

Thanks.

I haven't yet decided what to do about the unconditional int3. Slightly
tempted to suggest we put it in #ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_ENTRY now I've been
reminded that option exists? But we should *also* be doing better
testing of kexec-jump, with something like that test case I posted, and
adding an int3 into that would be trivial too.
