What made this necessary? Why does non-ARM specific code need to generate resets through machine check faults?




  

   

   
    
    

   
  1. 
    
    
     
    
      
     
    
     
    The O3 cpu generates a fault when something that shouldn't happen does happen to make sure it doesn't reach past commit and is instead squashed.

Don't comment out code, delete it.
