Hello,
A Fedora user has reported an issue about suspicious RCU usage in dev-mcelog. It looks like perhaps the notifier call chain is not acquiring the mce_chrdev_read_mutex? The traceback is
[36915.633804] ============================= [36915.633805] WARNING: suspicious RCU usage [36915.633808] 4.13.4-301.fc27.x86_64+debug #1 Not tainted [36915.633809] ----------------------------- [36915.633811] arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/dev-mcelog.c:60 suspicious mce_log_get_idx_check() usage!
