Re: [RFC PATCH v9 18/27] x86/cet/shstk: Introduce WRUSS instruction

WRUSS is a new kernel-mode instruction but writes directly to user Shadow
Stack (SHSTK) memory.  This is used to construct a return address on SHSTK
for the signal handler.

This instruction can fault if the user SHSTK is not valid SHSTK memory.
In that case, the kernel does a fixup.
Since these functions aren't used in this patch, should this get merged
with patch 19?
