I still fail to see why do we need to make it so complicated and can't
do something like:
fixup_exception:
...
#ifdef CONFIG_MCE_KERNEL_RECOVERY
if (regs->ip >= (unsigned long)__mcsafe_copy &&
regs->ip <= (unsigned long)__mcsafe_copy_end)
run_special_handler();
#endif
and that special handler does all the stuff we want. And we pass
X86_TRAP* etc through fixup_exception along with whatever else we
need from the trap handler...
Hmmm?
