The problem can be reproduced with the following sequence:
$ cat sysenter_step.c
int main()
{ asm("pushf; pop %ax; bts $8,%ax; push %ax; popf; sysenter"); }
$ gcc -o sysenter_step sysenter_step.c
$ ./sysenter_step
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
The program is expected to crash, and the #DB handler will issue a warning.
Should we wrap up this gem and put it with the other entry selftests?
It looks like tools/testing/selftests/x86/single_step_syscall.c tests
sysenter with TF set but it doesn't check if the kernel issues any
warning.
