Subject: [PATCH 0/6] x86, mce: machine check recovery for applications [updated]

machine check recovery - updates since December 13th version

part1:
	Change printk from:
		Action optional memory failure at %lx ignored
	to:
		Uncorrected memory error in page 0x%lx ignored
		Rebuild kernel with CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE=y for smarter handling
part3:
	Fix spelling of granularity.
	Add Boris' ACK line
part4:
	Some code style fixes from Ingo
	Use "struct mce_info *" as iterator in mce_{save,find}_info().
	Make mce_find_info() return pointer, so mce_clear_info() becomes trivial
part5:
	Update comments in several places to reflect changes for recovery

part2: part6:
	Code unchanged - Added Boris' ACK line

Tony Luck (6):
  HWPOISON: clean up memory_failure() vs. __memory_failure()
  HWPOISON: Add code to handle "action required" errors.
  x86, mce: create helper function to save addr/misc when needed
  x86, mce: Add mechanism to safely save information in MCE handler
  x86, mce: handle "action required" errors
  x86, mce: Recognise machine check bank signature for data path error
