PATCH v3 2/2 nfit, mce: validate the mce->addr before using it

Quoted 2 lines · Dan Williams

I recommended the split so the fixes can be tracked and / or reverted independently if they cause problems.

Do you have anything concrete in mind that might go wrong or just a general cautiousness?

Or do you think the hw might not spit what mce_usable_address() is checking for, for NVDIMM MCEs, so that you'd like to be able to revert that second patch?

Thx.
