commit9fe6299ddeupstream. When the kernel.print-fatal-signals sysctl has been enabled, a simple userspace crash will cause the kernel to write a crash dump that contains, among other things, the kernel gsbase into dmesg. As suggested by Andy, limit output to pt_regs, FS_BASE and KERNEL_GS_BASE in this case. This also moves the bitness-specific logic from show_regs() into process_{32,64}.c.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
