Now that the 32-bit and 64-bit x86 machine check handlers live next to each other a certain asymmetry in functionality is apparent. Notably, the 64-bit machine check handler implements a timer that periodically polls for silent machine check errors and makes them accessible to user space through /dev/mcelog. Are there reasons the x86 32-bit machine check handler couldn't do the same?
