That doesn't make any kind of sense to me; see faulthandler_disabled().
IOW. interrupt (and any atomic context really) won't take faults anyway.

I dislike that whole KERNEL_DS thing, but obviously that's not something
that's going away.

Would something like:

	WARN_ON_ONCE(!(in_task || segment_eq(get_fs(), USER_DS)))

Work? Then we allow KERNEL_DS in task context, but for interrupt and
others require USER_DS.
