Sure, I will make it common in a separate patch.

In fact BUS_MCEERR_AO cannot go to here, because QEMU main thread masks the 
SIGBUS signal[1]
and vcpu threads can only handle the BUS_MCEERR_AR.

         Qemu Main Thread   VCPU Threads

Kernel:  Mask SIGBUS        AO SIGBUS would be send to Qemu main thread in 
kernel(kill_proc())

KVM:     Mask SIGBUS        Only send AR SIGBUS to VCPU threads in 
KVM(kvm_send_hwpoison_signal())


However, maybe we shouldn't consider the behaviors of kernel or KVM and just 
keep
the logic of handling the AO signal in kvm_arch_on_sigbus_vcpu() like what x86 
version
does.
