Subject[PATCH v2 1/5] x86/mce: do not overwrite no_way_out if mce_end() fails
Date
Currently if mce_end() fails 'no_way_out' is set equal to 'worst'.
'worst' is the worst severity that was found across the MCA banks
associated with the current CPU; however at this point 'no_way_out'
could have been already set by mca_start() by looking at all
severities of all CPUs that entered the MCE handler.
If mce_end() fails, check first if no_way_out is already set and,
if so, stick to it, otherwise use the local worst value.
