+Subject: [PATCH 10/10] x86/mce: Do not overwrite MCi_STATUS in
+ mce_no_way_out()
+
+commit 1f74c8a64798e2c488f86efc97e308b85fb7d7aa upstream.
+
+mce_no_way_out() does a quick check during #MC to see whether some of
+the MCEs logged would require the kernel to panic immediately. And it
+passes a struct mce where MCi_STATUS gets written.
+
+However, after having saved a valid status value, the next iteration
+of the loop which goes over the MCA banks on the CPU, overwrites the
+valid status value because we're using struct mce as storage instead of
+a temporary variable.
+
+Which leads to MCE records with an empty status value:
+
+ mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: 6 Bank 0: 0000000000000000
+ mce: [Hardware Error]: RIP 10:<ffffffffbd42fbd7> {trigger_mce+0x7/0x10}
+
+In order to prevent the loss of the status register value, return
+immediately when severity is a panic one so that we can panic
+immediately with the first fatal MCE logged. This is also the intention
+of this function and not to noodle over the banks while a fatal MCE is
+already logged.
+
+Tony: read the rest of the MCA bank to populate the struct mce fully.
