Thanks for that. You're right, I broke this code right before sending
out the series while fixing a merge conflict. have prepared a new
patch series (rebased on Linux 6.13-rc7), with this redone to be part
of  user_mem_abort(), as opposed to being in its own function. Makes
the code cleaner more maintainable.

I've actually missed supporting both cases, and I think your
suggestion is the right way to do it. I'll fix it in the respin.
