// might consider a legitimate coding pattern. From discussion
// on kernelnewbies though it seems that this is not really an
// accepted pattern and if at all it would need to be commented
//
// In the Linux kernel it does not seem to actually report
// false positives except for those that were documented as
// being intentional.
// the two known cases are:
//   arch/sh/kernel/traps_64.c:read_opcode()
//        } else if ((pc & 1) == 0) {

//                 user-mode SHcompact yet, and for a kernel fault, this would
//                 have to come from a module built for SHcompact.  */
