to keep working over the upgrade to 2.6.26. At the scheduled time of
removal fixed lm-sensors (2.x or 3.x) should be readily available.

+----------------------------

+What: CONFIG_X86_OLD_MCE
+When: 2.6.29
+Why: Remove the old legacy 32bit machine check code. This has been superseded
+ by the 64bit machine check code, but the old version has been kept
+ around for easier testing. Note this doesn't impact the old P5 and WinChip
+ machine check handlers.
