[PATCH v2 4/8] x86/debug: Remove handle_debug(.user) argument
From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Fri Aug 21 2020 - 06:22:18 EST
The handle_debug(.user) argument is used to terminate the #DB handler
early for the INT1-from-kernel case, since the kernel doesn't use
INT1.
Remove the argument and handle this explicitly in #DB-from-kernel.
