Subject: [PATCH] Revert "powerpc/64s: machine check interrupt update NMI accounting"

This reverts commit 116ac378bb3ff844df333e7609e7604651a0db9d.

This commit causes the kernel to oops and reboot when injecting a SLB
multihit which causes a MCE.

Before this commit a SLB multihit was corrected by the kernel and the
system continued to operate normally.
