[PATCH V1 5/6] arm64: exception: handle instruction abort at current EL

Fri Feb 5 11:13:27 PST 2016


Add a handler for instruction aborts at the current EL
(ESR_ELx_EC_IABT_CUR) so they are no longer handled in el1_inv.
This allows firmware first handling for possible SEA
(Synchronous External Abort) caused instruction abort at
current EL.
