Do you mean make every call site of mce_panic() does a successful oops dump? I think
this patch will have achieved that. Or do I miss-read your comment?

IMHO the user will always expect a stack dump when system panic. I'm afraid that if these
"useless" cases are eliminated, it will cause user confused and trying to find what eats
the stack dump?

Thanks,
