We have a recent change around this behavior, which might be an answer for you.
See commit 30c9cf492704 ("mm,hwpoison: send SIGBUS to PF_MCE_EARLY processes on action required events").

Sorry if I misunderstood the exact problem, but if the point is to allow
user processes to find poisoned virtual address without SIGBUS, one possible
way is to expose hwpoison entry via /proc/pid/pagemap (attached a draft patch below).
With this patch, processes easily find hwpoison entries without any new interface.

It sounds to me that even if we have such code, it just narrows down the race window
between multiple MCEs on different CPUs. Or does it completely prevent the race?
(Another thread could touch the poisoned page just before the first thread marks
the page non-present?)

As you answered in another email, p->mce_vaddr is set only on KERNEL_COPYIN case,
then if p->mce_vaddr is available also for generic SRAR MCE (I'm assuming that we are
talking about issues on race between generic SRAR MCE not only for KERNEL_COPYIN case),
that might be helpful, although it might be hard to implement.
And I'm afraid that walking page table could find the wrong virtual address if a process
have multiple entries to the single page. We could send multiple SIGBUSs for such case,
but maybe that's not an optimal solution.
Thanks,
