+ Architecture neither relies on exception_enter()/exception_exit()
+ nor on schedule_user(). Also preempt_schedule_notrace() and
+ preempt_schedule_irq() can't be called in a preemptible section
+ while context tracking is CONTEXT_USER. This feature reflects a sane
+ entry implementation where the following requirements are met on
+ critical entry code, ie: before user_exit() or after user_enter():
+
+ - Critical entry code isn't preemptible (or better yet:
+ not interruptible).
+ - No use of RCU read side critical sections, unless rcu_nmi_enter()
+ got called.
+ - No use of instrumentation, unless instrumentation_begin() got
+ called.
