Are you sure about enabling interrupts before going to "no_context" ?

If somebody does a user access "in atomic" with interrupt disabled (with
the expectation that a fault would be caught by search_exception_tables
and returned as -EFAULT), such code probably doesn't expect interrupts
to be re-enabled implicitely.

I hadn't considered that...  I'll review this and make sure this isn't what
we intended (it probably isn't) and get it fixed.


Thanks,
