[ Upstream commit eb43c9b1517b48e2ff0d3a584aca197338987d7b ]
This comment comes from a time when the kernel attempted to use SYSRET on all returns to userspace, including interrupts and exceptions. Ever since commit fffbb5dc ("Move opportunistic sysret code to syscall code path"), SYSRET is only used for returning from system calls. The specific tracing issue listed in this comment is not possible anymore.
