A review would be appreciated please? I'm struggling with it a bit. memory_failure_queue_kick() should be called on the cpu which is identified by arg `cpu', yes? memory_failure_work_func() appears to assume this. If that's right then a) why bother passing in the `cpu' arg? and b) what keeps this thread pinned to that CPU? cancel_work_sync() can schedule.

If I read correctly, memory_failure work is queue on the CPU on which the user process ran when it touched the corrupted memory, and the process can be scheduled on another CPU when the kernel returned back to userspace after handling the GHES event. So we need to remember where the memory_failure event is queued to flush proper work queue. So I feel that this properly implements it. Considering the effect to the other caller, currently memory_failure_queue() has 2 callers, ghes_handle_memory_failure() and cec_add_elem(). The former is what we try to change now. And the latter is to execute soft offline (which is related to corrected non-fatal errors), so that's not affected by the reported issue. So I don't think that this change breaks the other caller. So I'm fine with the suggested change. Acked-by: Naoya Horiguchi <naoya.horiguchi@nec.com> Thanks, Naoya Horiguchi

So because patch [1/3] has been ACKed already, I'm applying this series as 5.8 material. Thanks everyone!
