That's vMCE injection logic.
anyway, I will present new round of patch according to Boris and your commends, as following
[Patch 1/3] xen-mce-Add-mcelog-support-for-Xen-platform.patch
[Patch 2/3] X86-MCE-AMD-Adjust-initcall-sequence-for-xen.patch
[Patch 3/3] Register-native-mce-handler-as-vMCE-bounce-back-poin.patch

Patch 1/3 and 2/3 are for mcelog
Patch 3/3 are for vMCE injection

I pull this morning and rebase my patches based on
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
