Is the below logic sound? It does not agree with what is added here:

void machine_check_exception(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
	int recover = 0;

	/*
	 * BOOK3S_64 does not call this handler as a non-maskable interrupt
	 * (it uses its own early real-mode handler to handle the MCE proper
	 * and then raises irq_work to call this handler when interrupts are
	 * enabled).
	 *
	 * This is silly. The BOOK3S_64 should just call a different function
	 * rather than expecting semantics to magically change. Something
	 * like 'non_nmi_machine_check_exception()', perhaps?
	 */
	const bool nmi = !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64);

	if (nmi) nmi_enter();

Thanks
