Do you want to mask the error_code here before printing its value?

+
+ rdmsrl(MSR_IA32_PL3_SSP, ssp);
+ pr_emerg("%s[%d] control protection ip:%lx sp:%lx ssp:%lx error:%lx(%s)",
+ tsk->comm, task_pid_nr(tsk),
+ regs->ip, regs->sp, ssp, error_code,
+ control_protection_err[error_code]);

Instead, you could clamp error_code to ARRAY_SIZE(control_protection_err),
and add another "unknown" to the end of the strings:

control_protection_err[
array_index_nospec(error_code,
ARRAY_SIZE(control_protection_err))]

Everything else looks good.


I will update it. Thanks!
