When CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR is selected and user aborts occur,
there is a warning:

This is not the right fix - preemption is supposed to be disabled before
this function is called. I'm not sure at the present time what the right
fix is supposed to be because I've forgotten most of the background
behind why this was placed where it is.

I have tested with the current mainline kernel, the warning still exists.

Yes, it still exists, because it's never been fixed, but the way you are
fixing it is not correct. We do not paper over warnings with incorrect
fixes.
