Is it time to have a big cleanup on how we handle similarities
and oddities in the MCE subsystem?  We've been adding ad-hoc
tests like this in random places ... and it all looks very
messy.  Lines that mention x86_vendor|x86|x86_model below
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mce/ currently look like this:

Maybe we can X86_VENDOR_ZHAOXIN to this jumble with the excuse that
it is already so ugly that this patch series only makes things 5% worse?

Or should we make a big table of CPU vendors/families/models and use
x86_match_cpu() to pick out what are running on and set some bits/flags
(like X86_FEATURE/X86_BUG) which we can use in the code to do the
right thing in each place?

E.g. default for Intel and Zhaoxin vendors would be to set MCE_INTEL_LIKE.

Thoughts?
