Subject: [PATCH 02/13] x86/mce: Provide a lockless memory pool to save error records
From: "Chen, Gong" <gong.chen@...ux.intel.com>
printk() is not safe to use in MCE context. Add a lockless memory
allocator pool to save error records in MCE context. Those records will
be issued later, in a printk-safe context. The idea is inspired by
the APEI/GHES driver.
We're very conservative and allocate only two pages for it but since
we're going to use those pages throughout the system's lifetime, we
allocate them statically to avoid early boot time allocation woes.
