Subject: [PATCH 4/8] x86/MCE/AMD: Collect error info even if valid bits are not set

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@...e.de>

The MCA banks log error info into MCA_ADDR, MCA_MISC0, and MCA_SYND even
if the corresponding valid bits are not set:

"Error handlers should save the values in MCA_ADDR, MCA_MISC0,
and MCA_SYND even if MCA_STATUS[AddrV], MCA_STATUS[MiscV], and
MCA_STATUS[SyndV] are zero."

Do so by setting those bits so that code down the MCE processing path
doesn't need to be changed.
