[PATCH] x86_64: ignore machine checks from boot time

Browse Source 
Don't log machine check events left over from boot.  Too many BIOSes leave
bogus events in there.

This unfortunately also makes it impossible to log events that caused a
reboot.  For people with non broken BIOS there is mce=bootlog

Machine check
mce=off disable machine check
mce=bootlog Enable logging of machine checks left over from booting.
Disabled by default because some BIOS leave bogus ones.
If your BIOS doesn't do that it's a good idea to enable though
to make sure you log even machine check events that result
in a reboot.
nomce (for compatibility with i386): same as mce=off
