The following commit:

 commit dc280d93623927570da279e99393879dbbab39e7
 Author: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

     cpu/hotplug: Prevent overwriting of callbacks

results in an early OOPs during boot on my AMD machine.
I haven't wrote down the entire backtrace, but basically things start to
go wrong in mce_threshold_create_device() from
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_amd.c.

# CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is not set 

Reverting the commit "fixes" the issue for me.
