x86/mce/amd: Filter bogus hardware errors on Zen3 clients
Users have been observing multiple L3 cache deferred errors after recent
kernel rework of deferred error handling.¹ ⁴
The errors are bogus due to inconsistent status values. Also, user verified
that bogus MCA_DESTAT values are present on the system even with an older
kernel.²
The errors seem to be garbage values present in the MCA_DESTAT of some L3
cache banks. These were implicitly ignored before the recent kernel rework
because these do not generate a deferred error interrupt.
A later revision of the rework patch was merged for v6.19. This naturally
filtered out most of the bogus error logs. However, a few signatures still
remain.³
Minimize the scope of the filter to the reported CPU
family/model/stepping and only for errors which don't have the Enabled
bit in the MCi status MSR.
