On Zhaoxin CPUs don't set MCG_STATUS_LMCES, to avoid rendezvous timeout if 
this CPU is offline or crashing_cpu was set, we want return true regardless of
MCG_STATUS_RIPV's setting. 

Without my else clause, original codes return true only when MCG_STATUS_RIPV
be setted.

For better readability, will add comment and change coding style in v3.
