    x86/mce: Fix CMCI preemption bugs · ea431643
    Ingo Molnar authored
    The following commit:
    
      27f6c573 ("x86, CMCI: Add proper detection of end of CMCI storms")
    
    Added two preemption bugs:
    
     - machine_check_poll() does a get_cpu_var() without a matching
       put_cpu_var(), which causes preemption imbalance and crashes upon
       bootup.
    
     - it does percpu ops without disabling preemption. Preemption is not
       disabled due to the mistaken use of a raw spinlock.
    
    To fix these bugs fix the imbalance and change
    cmci_discover_lock to a regular spinlock.
