x86/mm, mm/hwpoison: Clear PRESENT bit for kernel 1:1 mappings of poison pages
commit ce0fa3e56ad20f04d8252353dcd24e924abdafca upstream.
Speculative processor accesses may reference any memory that has a
valid page table entry. While a speculative access won't generate
a machine check, it will log the error in a machine check bank. That
could cause escalation of a subsequent error since the overflow bit
will be then set in the machine check bank status register.
Code has to be double-plus-tricky to avoid mentioning the 1:1 virtual
address of the page we want to map out otherwise we may trigger the
very problem we are trying to avoid. We use a non-canonical address
that passes through the usual Linux table walking code to get to the
same "pte".
Thanks to Dave Hansen for reviewing several iterations of this.
