Subject: [PATCH v1 06/12] x86/mce: Prevent severity computation from being instrumented

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@...e.de>

Mark all the MCE severity computation logic noinstr and allow
instrumentation when it "calls out".

Fixes

  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_machine_check()+0xc5d: call to mce_severity() leaves .noinstr.text section
