Closing on the CR2 leak bug

So we need to get something into x86/urgent for the CR2 bug.

It seems like a no-brainer to do the hoisting patch, for which I prefer
the version proposed by Jiri Olsa which reads %cr2 and then passes it to
__do_page_fault() in a GPR:

As fart as I can tell this should fix Vince's problem as well.

Anyone who objects to this? Otherwise I will put it in tip:x86/urgent
tomorrow.

Do we need any more refinements this late in the -rc cycle?
