Subject: [PATCH 4/4 Rebase] x86, MCE: Avoid potential deadlock in MCE context
Date: Wed, 20 May 2015 15:35:38 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1432150538-3120-5-git-send-email-gong.chen@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1432150538-3120-1-git-send-email-gong.chen@linux.intel.com>

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 *printk*, we
may deadlock. In order to avoid that, delay printk into process context
to fix it.
