In a previous version Andy Lutomirsky suggested that
if (user_mode(regs) && (fixup_umip_exception(regs) == 0))

was easier to read :). Although at the time fixup_umip_exception
returned a numeric value. Now it only returns true/false for
successful/failed emulation. If with true/false not comparing to true
makes it easier to read, I will make the change.

Thanks and BR,
Ricardo
