Yes this work, thanks! I now get to userspace.
Tested-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>

I have compiled Trinity and running some stress on different boards.
The ARMv7 seems to rather die from random nasty stuff from the
syscall or OOM rather than any KASan-detected bugs, but I'll
keep hammering at it a big.

I have some odd patch I'll pass along.

Yours,
