Setting si_code to __SI_FAULT results in a userspace seeing
an si_code of 0. This is the same si_code as SI_USER. Posix
and common sense requires that SI_USER not be a signal specific
si_code. As such this use of 0 for the si_code is a pretty
horribly broken ABI.
This use of of __SI_FAULT is only a decade old. Which compared
to the other pieces of kernel code that has made this mistake
is almost yesterday.
This is probably worth fixing but I don't know mips well enough
to know what si_code to would be the proper one to use.
