mcheck_init() is called unconditionally from setup_arch(). So if anyone is
still using a Cyrix, Transmeta or other non-Intel, non-Amd processor we'd trip
this WARN_ON.
I think you can have a default severity function that just does:
return MCE_PANIC_SEVERITY;
just to avoid the unpleasant thought that we might jump through a NULL pointer
if we did somehow end up in do_machine_check() on another vendors cpu.
