[PATCH 2/2] x86/mce/dev-mcelog: Fix updating kflags in AMD systems
From: Smita Koralahalli
Date: Tue Aug 25 2020 - 10:47:55 EST
The mcelog utility is not commonly used on AMD systems. Therefore, errors
logged only by the dev_mce_log() notifier will be missed. This may occur
if the EDAC modules are not loaded in which case it's preferable to print
the error record by the default notifier.
However, the mce->kflags set by dev_mce_log() notifier makes the default
notifier to skip over the errors assuming they are processed by
dev_mce_log().
Do not update kflags in the dev_mce_log() notifier on AMD systems.
