x86: remove last user of get_segment_eip
is_prefetch was the last user of get_segment_eip and only on X86_32. This function returned the faulting instruction's address and set the upper segment limit. Instead, use the convert_ip_to_linear helper and rely on probe_kernel_address to do the segment checks which was already done everywhere the segment limit was being checked on X86_32. Remove get_segment_eip as well. Signed-off-by: Harvey Harrison <harvey.harrison@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
