Hi Eric,

Now that _exception no longer calls _exception_pkey it is no longer
necessary to handle any signal with any si_code. All pkey exceptions
are SIGSEGV with paired with SEGV_PKUERR. So just handle
that case and remove the now unnecessary parameters from _exception_pkey.

Looks fine to me (small query below).

In the patch title, s/poewrpc/powerpc


clear_siginfo(&info);
- info.si_signo = signr;
- info.si_code = code;
+ info.si_signo = SIGSEGV;
+ info.si_code = SEGV_PKUERR;
info.si_addr = (void __user *) addr;
info.si_pkey = key;
- force_sig_info(signr, &info, current);
+ force_sig_info(info.si_signo, &info, current);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Why not just SIGSEGV?
