The SIGBUS needs to be sent to the current only for synchronous exceptions. The judgment of this if statement does not guarantee this.
Because the function ghes_proc_in_irq() is used for NMI, but NMI not only used for synchronous exception. One user SEA is synchronous
exception, and some other users, such as SDEI, may be not synchronous exception.

You could transfer the sync flag out from ghes_do_proc() and judge it here, or change meaning of the ghes_do_proc() return value
as if recovered.
