+[IA64] die_if_kernel() can return
+
+arch/ia64/kernel/unaligned.c erroneously marked die_if_kernel()
+with a "noreturn" attribute ... which is silly (it returns whenever
+the argument regs say that the fault happened in user mode, as one
+might expect given the "if_kernel" part of its name!).  Thanks to
+Alan and Gareth for pointing this out.
