commit d90167a941f62860f35eb960e1012aa2d30e7e94 upstream.

Intel's MCA implementation broadcasts MCEs to all CPUs on the
node. This poses a problem for offlined CPUs which cannot
participate in the rendezvous process:

  Kernel panic - not syncing: Timeout: Not all CPUs entered broadcast exception handler
  Kernel Offset: disabled
  Rebooting in 100 seconds..

More specifically, Linux does a soft offline of a CPU when
writing a 0 to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online, which
doesn't prevent the #MC exception from being broadcasted to that
CPU.

Ensure that offline CPUs don't participate in the MCE rendezvous
and clear the RIP valid status bit so that a second MCE won't
cause a shutdown.

Without the patch, mce_start() will increment mce_callin and
wait for all CPUs. Offlined CPUs should avoid participating in
the rendezvous process altogether.

The "rcu_" prefix misleads for it being a proper RCU interface
which is not. It basically checks whether we're preemptible or
holding the chrdev_read mutex.

Rename it accordingly.

<title>x86/mce: Reenable CMCI banks when swiching back to interrupt mode</title>

<id>1b48465500611a2dc5e75800c61ac352e22d41c3</id>
<content type='text'>
Zhang Liguang reported the following issue:

1) System detects a CMCI storm on the current CPU.

2) Kernel disables the CMCI interrupt on banks owned by the
   current CPU and switches to poll mode

3) After the CMCI storm subsides, kernel switches back to
   interrupt mode

4) We expect the system to reenable the CMCI interrupt on banks
   owned by the current CPU

   mce_intel_adjust_timer
   |-&gt; cmci_reenable
       |-&gt; cmci_discover     # owned banks are ignored here

  static void cmci_discover(int banks)
	...
	for (i = 0; i &lt; banks; i++) {
		...
		if (test_bit(i, owned))	# ownd banks is ignore here
			continue;

So convert cmci_storm_disable_banks() to
cmci_toggle_interrupt_mode() which controls whether to enable or
disable CMCI interrupts with its argument.

NB: We cannot clear the owned bit because the banks won't be
polled, otherwise. See:

  27f6c573e0f7 ("x86, CMCI: Add proper detection of end of CMCI storms")

for more info.

kexec could boot a kernel that could be legacy with no knowledge
of LMCE. Hence we should make sure we clear LMCE optin before
kexec reboot.

kexec could boot a kernel that could be legacy with no knowledge
of LMCE. Hence we should make sure we clear LMCE optin before
kexec reboot.

This used to flush out MCEs logged during early boot and which
were in the MCA registers from a previous system run. No need
for that now, since we've moved to a genpool.

<title>x86/mce: Avoid potential deadlock due to printk() in MCE context</title>

Printing in MCE context is a no-no, currently, as printk() is
not NMI-safe. If some of the notifiers on the MCE chain call do
so, we may deadlock. In order to avoid that, delay printk() to
process context where it is safe.

Use unified genpool to save Action Optional error events and put
Action Optional error handling in the same notification chain as
MCE error decoding.
