[PATCH] x86, mce: cleanup mce_start()

From: Hidetoshi Seto
Date: Mon Jun 15 2009 - 05:19:02 EST


[ my 02/16 should be replaced by combination of Huang's fix and this cleanup ]

Simplify interface of mce_start().

- no_way_out = mce_start(no_way_out, &order);
+ order = mce_start(&no_way_out);

Now Monarch and Subjects share same exit(return) in usual path.
