OK,using EX_TYPE_UACCESS and this extable type could be recover, this is 
more reasonable.

For EX_TYPE_UACCESS_ERR_ZERO, today we use it for kernel accesses in a 
couple of cases, such as 
get_user/futex/__user_cache_maint()/__user_swpX_asm(), your suggestion is:
get_user continues to use EX_TYPE_UACCESS_ERR_ZERO and the other cases 
use new type EX_TYPE_FIXUP_ERR_ZERO?

Thanks,
Tong.

Yeah, you're right about the current logic, so i added notes to explain 
the scenarios that will be added later.

Agreed, will fixed next version.
