SEA exceptions are often caused by an uncorrected hardware

When SEA occurs, before killing the process, go through
the handlers registered in the notification list.
Update fault_info[] with specific SEA faults so that the
new SEA handler is used.

addr here was read from FAR_EL1, but for some of the classes of exception you
have listed below this register isn't updated with the faulting address.
The ARM-ARM version 'k' in D1.10.5 "Summary of registers on faults taken to an
Exception level that is using Aarch64" has:
The architecture permits that the FAR_ELx is UNKNOWN for Synchronous External
Aborts other than Synchronous External Aborts on Translation Table Walks. In
this case, the ISS.FnV bit returned in ESR_ELx indicates whether FAR_ELx is
valid.
This is a problem if we get 'synchronous external abort' or 'synchronous parity
error' while a user space process was running.
It looks like this would just cause an incorrect address to be printed
in the above pr_err.
Unless I'm missing something, I don't see arm64_notify_die or anything
that gets called from
there using the info.si_addr variable.
What do you suggest I do here? The firmware should be reporting the
physical and virtual
address information if it is available in the HEST entry that the kernel
will parse. So should I
just remove the use of the addr parameter in do_sea?
Thanks,
Tyler
