Atom-based CPUs trigger stack fault when invoke 32-bit SYSENTER instruction with invalid register values. So we also need SIGBUS handling in this case.
Following is assembly when the fault exception happens.
(gdb) disassemble $eip Dump of assembler code for function __kernel_vsyscall: 0xf7fd8fe0 <+0>: push %ecx 0xf7fd8fe1 <+1>: push %edx 0xf7fd8fe2 <+2>: push %ebp 0xf7fd8fe3 <+3>: mov %esp,%ebp 0xf7fd8fe5 <+5>: sysenter 0xf7fd8fe7 <+7>: int $0x80 => 0xf7fd8fe9 <+9>: pop %ebp 0xf7fd8fea <+10>: pop %edx 0xf7fd8feb <+11>: pop %ecx 0xf7fd8fec <+12>: ret End of assembler dump.
According to Intel SDM, this could also be a Stack Segment Fault(#SS, 12), except a normal Page Fault(#PF, 14). Especially, in section 6.9 of Vol.3A, both stack and page faults are within the 10th(lowest priority) class, and as it said, "exceptions within each class are implementation-dependent and may vary from processor to processor". It's expected for processors like Intel Atom to trigger stack fault(SIGBUS), while we get page fault(SIGSEGV) from common Core processors.

Looks like it got left behind in the confusion of which tree.
I will apply this to my tree.
