* : r3 = saved SPSR
*
* Purpose : obtain information about current aborted instruction
+ * Note: we read user space. This means we might cause a data
+ * abort here if the I-TLB and D-TLB aren't seeing the same
+ * picture. Unfortunately, this does happen. We live with it.
*
* Returns : r0 = address of abort
* : r1 != 0 if writing
