I'm confused on the purpose of trap_array[], could you elucidate me?

Used to replace trap handler addresses by Xen specific ones and sanity check

if there's an unexpected IST-using fault handler.


The sole user seems to be get_trap_addr() and that talks about ISTs, but
#BP isn't an IST anymore, so why does it have ist_okay=true?

Oh, yes, I missed that boolean, thanks. I'll try ist_okey=false for int3 and test it tomorrow.
