Hi Eric,

It is brittle and wrong to populate si_pkey when there was not a pkey
exception.  The field does not exist for all si_codes and in some
cases another field exists in the same memory location.

So factor out the code that all exceptions handlers must run
into exception_common, leaving the individual exception handlers
to generate the signals themselves.

Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <redacted>
Clearly no change in semantics.
