machine_check_early() is taken as an NMI, so nmi_enter() is used there. machine_check_exception() is no longer taken as an NMI (it's invoked via irq_work in the case a machine check hits in kernel mode), so remove the nmi_enter() from that case. In NMI context, hash faults don't try to refill the hash table, which can lead to crashes accessing non-pinned kernel pages. System reset still has this potential problem.

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.
