Subject: x86/mce: Make machine check speculation protected
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 6f41c34d69eb005e7848716bbcafc979b35037d5 upstream.
The machine check idtentry uses an indirect branch directly from the low
level code. This evades the speculation protection.
Replace it by a direct call into C code and issue the indirect call there
so the compiler can apply the proper speculation protection.
