[ Upstream commit e2def7d49d0812ea40a224161b2001b2e815dce2 ]
If an exception needs to be handled while reading an MSR - which is in
most of the cases caused by a #GP on a non-existent MSR - then this
is most likely the incarnation of a BIOS or a hardware bug. Such bug
violates the architectural guarantee that MCA banks are present with all
MSRs belonging to them.
The proper fix belongs in the hardware/firmware - not in the kernel.
Handling an #MC exception which is raised while an NMI is being handled
would cause the nasty NMI nesting issue because of the shortcoming of
IRET of reenabling NMIs when executed. And the machine is in an #MC
context already so <Deity> be at its side.
Tracing MSR accesses while in #MC is another no-no due to tracing being
inherently a bad idea in atomic context:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_machine_check()+0x4a: call to mce_rdmsrl() leaves .noinstr.text section
so remove all that "additional" functionality from mce_rdmsrl() and
provide it with a special exception handler which panics the machine
when that MSR is not accessible.
The exception handler prints a human-readable message explaining what
the panic reason is but, what is more, it panics while in the #GP
handler and latter won't have executed an IRET, thus opening the NMI
nesting issue in the case when the #MC has happened while handling
an NMI. (#MC itself won't be reenabled until MCG_STATUS hasn't been
cleared).
