Hi, Russell,

I caught the following issue few times on my panda board on lsk. but I track the code
path, looks like the upstream kernel has the same problem too.

the interrupt handler do_undefinstr --> arm_notify_die --> die --> ...
			exit_signals --> threadgroup_change_begin --> down_read
and then down_read maybe get into sleep.
Is it a issue which needs to be fixed? or I over concern on this?
