This looks good to me.

Just in case, I gave this a spin on arm64 defconfig atop v5.18-rc4. This builds
cleanly with both GCC 11.1.0 and LLVM 14.0.0, and works correctly in testing
on both with the LKDTM BUG/WARNING/WARNING_MESSAGE tests, i.e.

echo WARNING > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
echo WARNING_MESSAGE > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
echo BUG > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT

FWIW:

As an aside (and for anyone else trying to duplicate my results), on arm64
there's a latent issue (prior to this patch) where BUG() will always result in
a WARN_ON_ONCE() in rcu_eqs_enter(). Since BUG() uses a BRK, and we treat the
BRK exception as an NMI, when we kill the task we do that in NMI context, but
schedule another task in regular task context, and RCU doesn't like that:

... ideally we'd rework the way we handle BRK such that we can treat BUG() as a
regular synchronous exception that inherits the original context (as if it were
a special function call within that context).

Thanks,
Mark.
