[PATCH v5 6/9] x86/msr: Carry on after a non-"safe" MSR access fails
From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Sat Apr 02 2016 - 10:02:23 EST
This demotes an OOPS and likely panic due to a failed non-"safe" MSR
access to a WARN_ONCE and, for RDMSR, a return value of zero.
To be clear, this type of failure should *not* happen. This patch
exists to minimize the chance of nasty undebuggable failures
happening when a CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y bug in the non-"safe" MSR helpers
gets fixed.
