We used rdmsr_safe_on_cpu() to make sure we're reading the proper CPU's MISC block addresses. However, that caused trouble with CPU hotplug due to the _on_cpu() helper issuing an IPI while IRQs are disabled. But we don't have to do that: the block addresses are the same on any CPU so we can read them on any CPU. (What practically happens is, we read them on the BSP and cache them, and for later reads, we service them from the cache).

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
