kernel mode EXC_DSE handling depends on td->td_pcb-> not slb faulting in setting up its slbmte use?

[Mark Millard]

/usr/src/sys/powerpc/powerpc/trap.c has:

        } else {
                /* Kernel Mode Traps */

                KASSERT(cold || td->td_ucred != NULL,
                    ("kernel trap doesn't have ucred"));
                switch (type) {
. . .
#if defined(__powerpc64__) && defined(AIM)
                case EXC_DSE:
                        if (td->td_pcb->pcb_cpu.aim.usr_vsid != 0 &&
                            (frame->dar & SEGMENT_MASK) == USER_ADDR) {
                                __asm __volatile ("slbmte %0, %1" ::
                                        "r"(td->td_pcb->pcb_cpu.aim.usr_vsid),
                                        "r"(USER_SLB_SLBE));
                                return;
                        }
                        break;
#endif

in trap(...).

If the kernel mode EXC_DSE code got a slb fault from
td->td_pcb-> would things still be okay? (Nested trap
handling.)

If not, does something need to be done to guarantee
that td->td_pcb-> will not have an slb fault in the
above code?
