Yeah, this allows for in-process system call emulation, if desired, or
for the process to dump core/etc.  With RET_ERRNO or RET_KILL, there
isn't any feedback to the system about the state of the process.  Kill
populates audit_seccomp and dmesg, but if the application
user/developer isn't the system admin, installing audit bits or
checking system logs seems onerous.

This is the compat version and it expects to just use an unsigned int
(see the _addr entry in _sigfault earlier in the same file).

User instruction pointer, I'll clarify.
