Small nit.
I think the _actual_ user access faults should return -EFAULT, and
then the *validation* checks should return -EINVAL.
So when the "copy_from_user()" fails, that's -EFAULT, but when you
have (rseq_cs->start_ip >= TASK_SIZE), that's -EINVAL.
That said, nothing actually cares or exposes the error number, I
think. Afaik, all the callers just check "did it work" or not.
So this is more a "let's be consistent" than anything that matters.
