AMD's MCA Thresholding feature counts errors of all severity levels, not
just correctable errors. If a deferred error causes the threshold limit
to be reached (it was the error that caused the overflow), then both a
deferred error interrupt and a thresholding interrupt will be triggered.
The order of the interrupts is not guaranteed. If the threshold
interrupt handler is executed first, then it will clear MCA_STATUS for
the error. It will not check or clear MCA_DESTAT which also holds a copy
of the deferred error. When the deferred error interrupt handler runs it
will not find an error in MCA_STATUS, but it will find the error in
MCA_DESTAT. This will cause two errors to be logged.
Check for deferred errors when handling a threshold interrupt. If a bank
contains a deferred error, then clear the bank's MCA_DESTAT register.
Define a new helper function to do the deferred error check and clearing
of MCA_DESTAT.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
