[PATCH v2 0/1] AMD VM crashing on deferred memory error injection

["“William Roche" <william.roche@oracle.com>]

From: William Roche <william.roche@oracle.com>

Thank you very much Yazen for your review and all the suggestions!

v2 changes:
- Commit title changed to:
  x86/mce/amd: Fix VM crash during deferred error handling
- Commit message with capitalized QEMU and KVM as well as the imperative
  statement suggested by Yazen
- "CC stable" tag placed after "Signed-off-by"
  (The documentation asks for "the sign-off area" without more details)
- blank line added to separate SCMA code block and the update of
  MCA_STATUS.

After the integration of the following commit:
	7cb735d7c0cb x86/mce: Unify AMD DFR handler with MCA Polling

AMD Qemu VM started to crash when dealing with deferred memory error
injection with a stack trace like:

mce: MSR access error: WRMSR to 0xc0002098 (tried to write 0x0000000000000000)
at rIP: 0xffffffff8229894d (mce_wrmsrq+0x1d/0x60)

 Kernel panic - not syncing: MCA architectural violation!

See the discussion at:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/48d8e1c8-1eb9-49cc-8de8-78077f29c203@oracle.com/

We identified a problem with SMCA specific registers access from
non-SMCA platforms like a QEMU/KVM machine.

This patch is checkpatch.pl clean.
Unit test of memory error injection works fine with it.
