Thanks, now your problem seems clearer.

It seems that this happens because in "Action Required" case kill_proc()
takes the first branch for current process, while it takes the else branch
for other affected processes:

    static int kill_proc(struct to_kill *tk, unsigned long pfn, int flags)
    {
            ...
    
            if ((flags & MF_ACTION_REQUIRED) && t->mm == current->mm) {
                    ret = force_sig_mceerr(BUS_MCEERR_AR, (void __user 
*)tk->addr,
                                           addr_lsb);
            } else {
                    /*
                     * Don't use force here, it's convenient if the signal
                     * can be temporarily blocked.
                     * This could cause a loop when the user sets SIGBUS
                     * to SIG_IGN, but hopefully no one will do that?
                     */
                    ret = send_sig_mceerr(BUS_MCEERR_AO, (void __user 
*)tk->addr,
                                          addr_lsb, t);  /* synchronous? */
            }

Sending SIGBUS with BUS_MCEERR_AO for action optional error is strange, so
maybe this logic should be like this:


            if (flags & MF_ACTION_REQUIRED) {
                    if (t->mm == current->mm)
                            ret = force_sig_mceerr(BUS_MCEERR_AR, (void __user 
*)tk->addr,
                                           addr_lsb);
                    /* send no signal to non-current processes */
            } else {
                    /*
                     * Don't use force here, it's convenient if the signal
                     * can be temporarily blocked.
                     * This could cause a loop when the user sets SIGBUS
                     * to SIG_IGN, but hopefully no one will do that?
                     */
                    ret = send_sig_mceerr(BUS_MCEERR_AO, (void __user 
*)tk->addr,
                                          addr_lsb, t);  /* synchronous? */
            }

Sorry, my previous comment around task_early_kill() is for a separate problem,
so I'll try some fix on this later.
