This is one of the best opening paragraphs of a commit message I've
read this year! This is how you open: short, succinct, to the point, no
marketing bullshit. Good!

Nice.

You wanna say "in common programs" here? Or "not commonly used in programs" ?

Btw, I could very well use all that nice explanation in umip.c too so
that the high-level behavior is documented.

Let's save some header lines:

static inline bool fixup_umip_exception(struct pt_regs *regs) 	{ return false; }

those trunks take too much space as it is.

Why not pull those up in asm/processor-flags.h or so and share the

Let's stick to a single spelling: ModRM.reg=0, etc.

Better yet, use the SDM format:

	UMIP_SGDT = 0,		/* 0F 01 /0 */
	UMIP_SIDT,		/* 0F 01 /1 */
	...

static enum umip_insn __identify_insn(...

But frankly, that enum looks pointless to me - it is used locally only
and you can just as well use plain ints.

Comment above the if.

So that check needs to go first, then the dummy_base_addr assignment.

Huh, that value will always be the same - why do you have a specific
variable? It could be a define, once for 32-bit and once for 64-bit.

Something's wrong here: how does that local, write-only variable have
any effect?

That switch-case has a majority of fall-throughs. So make it an if-else
instead.

One 0 should be enough :)

Oh boy, where's the error handling?! That can return -1L.

Grr, error handling!! That reg_offset can be -E<something>.

That comment is kinda obvious. But yes, this has error handling.
