3.16.55-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]>

commit 6f41c34d69eb005e7848716bbcafc979b35037d5 upstream.

The machine check idtentry uses an indirect branch directly from the low
level code. This evades the speculation protection.

Replace it by a direct call into C code and issue the indirect call there
so the compiler can apply the proper speculation protection.
