Can do I suppose.

No nesting, syscall_ vs irqentry_. And you can't have a syscall and an
exception both be from user at the same time :-)

Yes; both can end up blocking.

Would something like:

#ifndef arch_irqentry_irq_enter
static __always_inline bool arch_irqentry_irq_enter(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
	if (!regs_irqs_disabled(regs)) {
		local_irq_enable();
		return true;
	}
	return false;
}
#endif

static __always_inline void irqentry_irq_enter(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
	if (arch_irqentry_irq_inherit(regs)) {
		if (user_mode(regs) && (current->flags & PF_UMCG_WORKER))
			umcg_sys_enter(regs, -1);
	}
}

Work? Then arm64 can do:

static __always_inline bool arch_irqentry_irq_enter(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
	local_daif_inherit();
	return interrupts_enabled(regs);
}

or somesuch...
