MCE handling on pSeries platform fails as recent rework to use common
code for pSeries and PowerNV in machine check error handling tries to
access per-cpu variables in realmode. The per-cpu variables may be
outside the RMO region on pSeries platform and needs translation to be
enabled for access. Just moving these per-cpu variable into RMO region
did'nt help because we queue some work to workqueues in real mode, which
again tries to touch per-cpu variables. Also fwnmi_release_errinfo()
cannot be called when translation is not enabled.
This patch fixes this by enabling translation in the exception handler
when all required real mode handling is done. This change only affects
the pSeries platform.
Without this fix below kernel crash is seen on injecting

README
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.
