commit 5015bb89b58225f97df6ac44383e7e8c8662c8c9 upstream. SYSEXIT is one of the instructions that can change the processor mode, thus ctxt->mode should be updated after it. Note that this is likely a benign bug, because the only problematic mode change is from 32 bit to 64 bit which can lead to truncation of RIP, and it is not possible to do with sysexit, since sysexit running in 32 bit mode will be limited to 32 bit version.

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.
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.
