It might look something like this (though now that I've looked at it, it seems 
we could use an early option parser for ia64).  I've tried to add a 'nomca' 
boot option that you can pass to the kernel to avoid registering the MCA 
handlers with the firmware.  This kernel builds and boots for me w/o the 
'nomca' option, but on sn2 it hangs at boot if I pass 'nomca'.
