x86/mce/AMD: Make sure banks were initialized before accessing them

Here's something below. You do:

dmesg | mce-to-inj.py

when dmesg contains the MCE. It should output something like this:

echo 4 > /sys/kernel/debug/mce-inject/cpu
echo 0xd8200000000a0151 > /sys/kernel/debug/mce-inject/status echo 0xd01b0fff00000000 > /sys/kernel/debug/mce-inject/misc echo 0x4a000000 > /sys/kernel/debug/mce-inject/synd echo sw > /sys/kernel/debug/mce-inject/flags
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/mce-inject/bank

For that you need the injection module loaded, i.e.,

CONFIG_X86_MCE_INJECT=m

and modprobe mce-inject

Also, the assumption is that debugfs is mounted on the default /sys/kernel/debug mountpoint.

So when you run those lines above as root, you should see the decoded error in dmesg, i.e., this thing:

[    1.079789] [Hardware Error]: Corrected error, no action required.
[    1.079789] [Hardware Error]: CPU:4 (17:11:0) MC1_STATUS[Over|CE|MiscV|-|-|-|-|SyndV|-]: 0xd8200000000a0151

HTH.
