It is possible that the kernel is entered from kernel-mode and on the
entry-stack. The most common way this happens is when an exception is
triggered while loading the user-space segment registers on the
kernel-to-userspace exit path.
The segment loading needs to be done after the entry-stack switch, because
the stack-switch needs kernel %fs for per_cpu access.
When this happens, make sure to leave the kernel with the entry-stack
again, so that the interrupted code-path runs on the right stack when
switching to the user-cr3.
Detect this condition on kernel-entry by checking CS.RPL and %esp, and if
it happens, copy over the complete content of the entry stack to the
task-stack. This needs to be done because once the exception handler is
entereed, the task might be scheduled out or even migrated to a different
CPU, so this cannot rely on the entry-stack contents. Leave a marker in the
stack-frame to detect this condition on the exit path.
On the exit path the copy is reversed, copy all of the remaining task-stack
back to the entry-stack and switch to it.
