[PATCH tip:ras/core 3/3] x86/MCE: Make correctable error detection look at the Deferred bit
From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Mon Dec 18 2017 - 06:37:35 EST
From: Yazen Ghannam <yazen.ghannam@xxxxxxx>
AMD systems may log Deferred errors. These are errors that are uncorrected
but which do not need immediate action. The MCA_STATUS[UC] bit may not be
set for Deferred errors.
Flag the error as not correctable when MCA_STATUS[Deferred] is set and
do not feed it into the Correctable Errors Collector.
