So pseries never flushed SLB and reloaded in response to multi hit
errors? This seems like quite a good improvement then. I like
dumping SLB too.

It's a bit annoying we can't share the same code with xmon really,
that's okay but I just suggest commenting them both if you take a
copy like this with a note to keep them in synch if you re-post
the series.

Suggest keeping the same format as the xmon dump (in particular
CPU number, even though it's probably printed elsewhere in the MCE
message it doesn't hurt.
