I searched for the error you provided on Google and went through multiple
links. I also briefly took a look at LKML.

Also, the fix people do (and what I told in the previous email) was to disable
C-state management, which implies the processor is doing some C-state stuff
which the kernel driver is unable to cope with.

Looking at the kernel code, you can find this specific error at line 1055 of
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mce/core.c. It is related to machine check exception (MCE)
handling.[1] MCEs are triggered by hardware bugs, but the error you mentioned
can potentially be triggered due to incorrect handling by the software.[2]

Anyways, if you didn't, maybe see if you can update your processor's microcode.
