What the longjmp about ? Are you referring to the mechanism of catching the
signal which was registered ?

Its a valid point because those are two distinct actions.

As both the pr_err() messages are very similar, could not we just switch between "Killing"
and "Sending SIGBUS to" based on a variable e.g action_[kill|sigbus] evaluated previously
with ((flags & MF_ACTION_REQUIRED) && t->mm == current->mm).
