AFAIK on arm64 it's basically a kernel OOPS.

The main thing I just wanted to point out though is that your newly added branch

> if (handle_ubsan_failure(regs, insn) == BUG_TRAP_TYPE_WARN) {

will never be taken, because I don't see where handle_ubsan_failure()
returns BUG_TRAP_TYPE_WARN.

That means 'handled' will be false, and the code in exc_invalid_op
will proceed to call handle_invalid_op() which is probably not what
you intended - i.e. it's definitely not BUG_TRAP_TYPE_NONE, but one of
TYPE_WARN of TYPE_BUG.

Did you test it and you got the behaviour you expected?
