Ouch. Did you find this by inspection, or did this show up in testing?

Sorry about this.

I think we should be a little more explicit as to exactly what goes wrong. How
about:

| In ex_handler_load_unaligned_zeropad() we erroneously extract the data and
| addr register indices from ex->type rather than ex->data. As ex->type will
| contain EX_TYPE_LOAD_UNALIGNED_ZEROPAD (i.e. 4):
| 
| * We'll always treat X0 as the address register, since EX_DATA_REG_ADDR is
|   extracted from bits [9:5]. Thus, we may attempt to dereference an arbitrary
|   address as X0 may hold an arbitary value.
| 
| * We'll always treat X4 as the data register, since EX_DATA_REG_DATA is
|   extracted from bits [4:0]. Thus we will corrupt X4 and cause arbitrary
|   behaviour within load_unaligned_zeropad() and its caller.
| 
| Fix this by extracting both values from ex->data as originally intended.

That should be expanded, e.g.

  Fixes: 753b32368705c396 ("arm64: extable: add load_unaligned_zeropad() handler")

With those changes:
