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

Yet another version ...

Some bits should look familiar (hopefully pieces that were not too controversial
from earlier versions). Other bits are all new (e.g. part 4/6 which sets up some
functions that can safely save away the physical address of the faulting address
in the machine check handler for later retrieval in a safer execution context).

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
