Subject[PATCH] [6/10] x86: MCE: Disable machine checks on offlined CPUs.
Date

Impact: Lower priority bug fix

Offlined CPUs could still get machine checks, but the machine check handler
cannot handle them properly, leading to an unconditional crash. Disable
machine checks on CPUs that are going down.
