[PATCH 1/7] x86/mce: Handle an in-kernel MCE decoder

[Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de>]

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

Change the MCE decoding flow to issue the trace_mce_record() tracepoint
only when there's no decoder registered on the decoder chain. If there
is, it will do some massaging on the MCE info before issuing it through
the tracepoint.
