Subject: [PATCH v1 07/12] x86/mce: Mark mce_panic() noinstr

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

And allow instrumentation inside it because it does calls to other
facilities which will not be tagged noinstr.

Fixes

  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_machine_check()+0xc73: call to mce_panic() leaves .noinstr.text section
