I feel like I'm missing some context here, and the commit message is way
too terse for me to make sense of it.
So far, we can only get into user_mem_abort on a Stage-2 fault
(translation or permission) for memory. How can we suddenly get here for
a *device* fault? Do we get a special kind of memslot?
I'm not saying the patch does anything wrong, but I'd like to understand
the rationale behind it. On its own, it doesn't make much sense.
Thanks,
M.
