A long time ago, Linux cleared IA32_MCG_STATUS at the very end of machine check processing. Then, some fancy recovery and IST manipulation was added in:d4812e169d("x86, mce: Get rid of TIF_MCE_NOTIFY and associated mce tricks") and clearing IA32_MCG_STATUS was pulled earlier in the function. Next change moved the actual recovery out of do_machine_check() and just used task_work_add() to schedule it later (before returning to the user):5567d11c21("x86/mce: Send #MC singal from task work") Most recently the fancy IST footwork was removed as no longer needed:b052df3da8("x86/entry: Get rid of ist_begin/end_non_atomic()") At this point there is no reason remaining to clear IA32_MCG_STATUS early. It can move back to the very end of the function. Also move sync_core(). The comments for this function say that it should only be called when instructions have been changed/re-mapped. Recovery for an instruction fetch may change the physical address. But that doesn't happen until the scheduled work runs (which could be on another CPU).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
