For userspace to tell the difference between a random signal and an exception, the exception must include siginfo information. Using SEND_SIG_FORCED for SIGILL is thus wrong, and it will result in userspace seeing si_code == SI_USER (like a random signal) instead of si_code == SI_KERNEL or a more specific si_code as all exceptions deliver. Therefore replace force_sig_info(SIGILL, SEND_SIG_FORCE, current) with force_sig(SIG_ILL, current) which gets this right and is shorter and easier to type.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
