commit f094a39c6ba168f2df1edfd1731cca377af5f442 upstream. The machine check validity bit tells about the context. If a KVM guest was running the bit tells about the guest validity and the host state is not affected. As a guest can disable the guest validity this might result in unwanted host errors on machine checks.

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.
