Impact: cleanup
This merely factors out duplicated code to set up
the initial struct mce state into a single function.

Impact: low priority bug fix
This removes part of a a patch I added myself some time ago. After some
consideration the patch was a bad idea. In particular it stopped machine check
exceptions during code patching.
To quote the comment:
* MCEs only happen when something got corrupted and in this
* case we must do something about the corruption.
* Ignoring it is worse than a unlikely patching race.
* Also machine checks tend to be broadcast and if one CPU
* goes into machine check the others follow quickly, so we don't
* expect a machine check to cause undue problems during to code
* patching.
So undo the machine check related parts of
8f4e956b31 NMIs are still disabled.
This only removes code, the only additions are a new comment.

fix the following 'make headers_check' warnings:
usr/include/asm/mce.h:7: include of <linux/types.h> is preferred over <asm/types.h>
usr/include/asm/mce.h:29: found __[us]{8,16,32,64} type without #include <linux/types.h>

Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:
a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.
