[PATCH 2/3] EDAC, mce_amd_inj: Move bit preparations before the injection

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Wed Jun 10 2015 - 11:34:12 EST


From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>

We do get_online_cpus() and then start noodling with the bits. Do that
*before* we grab the hotplug lock. This accidentally fixes the other
issue where we check if a CPU is online but then go ahead and find out
the NBC core which might not be the same CPU as the CPU we want to
inject on.
