Subject: x86/mce: machine check warning during poweroff

Today's pull from Linus' tree shows a warning during poweroff, the
message is related to the machinecheck.
The drivers/base/core.c:device_release() did not find the registred
release() function.

This kernel is used for development and it's running under KVM/Qemu, so
if you need further information or tests let me know.

Qemu is simulating 2 CPUs.

Thanks.
