/*
 * The exception table consists of pairs of relative addresses: the first is
 * the address of an instruction that is allowed to fault, and the second is
 * the address at which the program should continue.  No registers are
 * modified, so it is entirely up to the continuation code to figure out what
 * to do.
 *
 * All the routines below use bits of fixup code that are out of line with the
 * main instruction path.  This means when everything is well, we don't even
 * have to jump over them.  Further, they do not intrude on our cache or tlb
 * entries.
