[PATCH] x86/mce: Report unavailable MCE support at informational level

[Dexuan Cui <decui@microsoft.com>]

mcheck_init_device() reports an error and returns -EIO when
mce_available() is false. However, MCE support being unavailable does
not necessarily indicate an initialization failure.

For example, a TDX guest with TD_CTLS.REDUCE_VE set and
FEATURE_PARAVIRT_CTLS.MCA clear does not enumerate the MCE and MCA
CPUID capabilities. This is an expected configuration, but it causes
the kernel to print:

  mce: Unable to init MCE device (rc: -5)

MCE can also be unavailable because it was explicitly disabled with
mce=off or nomce. When it was disabled due to an earlier initialization
problem, the relevant path already reports the reason.

Report MCE unavailability at informational level and return -ENODEV
directly instead of routing it through the common error path.
