Yes, because you have to deal with all of the trapped general exceptions
somehow.

I'm afraid not. You will need to spend some time reading the ARM ARM

is trapped by setting the HCR.TGE bit. Some might be handled by just
returning, others will require you to actually do something.

single thread and reply there as necessary.
