I suppose a complete fix would be to follow the "Conditions for
Generating a Double Fault" with support for handling exceptions
serially.

But this works for me.

I prefer proper solution. Like one attached (this is combination of ths
patch by Eddie Dong and my fix):
Nice, preferred here as well. I only have a minor comment below.

Move Double-Fault generation logic out of page fault
exception generating function to cover more generic case.

It's actually less readable. I know 11 is between 10 and 13, but is NP_VECTOR between TS_VECTOR and GP_VECTOR?

This is better as a switch, or even:

u8 exception_class[] = {
   [PF_VECTOR] EXPT_PF,

etc.
