[v2 6/7] x86/traps: Fixup general protection faults caused by UMIP

If the User-Mode Instruction Prevention CPU feature is available and
enabled, a general protection fault will be issued if the instructions
sgdt, sldt, sidt, str or smsw are executed from user-mode context
(CPL > 0). If the fault was caused by any of the instructions protected
by UMIP, fixup_umip_exceptino will emulate dummy results for these
instructions.
