[PATCH v1 1/4] x86/mce: Collect error message for severities below MCE_PANIC_SEVERITY

[Shuai Xue]

Currently, mce_no_way_out() only collects error messages when the error
severity is equal to `MCE_PANIC_SEVERITY`. To improve diagnostics,
modify the behavior to also collect error messages when the severity is
less than `MCE_PANIC_SEVERITY`.
