Currently, any memory error consumed in kernel mode will lead to panic
(do_sea()).

My idea is that not all memory errors consumed in kernel mode are fatal,
such as copy_ from_ user/get_ user is a memory error consumed when
reading user data in the process context. In this case, we can not let 
the kernel panic, just kill the process without affecting the operation
of the system.

However, not all uaccess can be recovered without affecting the normal
operation of the system. The key is not whether it is uaccess, but 
whether there are key data affecting the normal operation of the system 
in the read page.

Thanks,
Tong.
