[PATCH 1/2] x86: don't enable MCE after suspend/resume when systemwas booted with "nomce"

From: Andreas Herrmann
Date: Fri Dec 12 2008 - 13:08:59 EST


Impact: fix suspend/resume bug with MCE

A suspend/resume cycle unconditionally enables MCE
for the boot CPU if MCE is compiled into the kernel.
I.e. even a system booted with "nomce" configures MCE for the boot CPU.

This patch ensures that MCE is not turned on for systems booted with
"nomce".
