[PATCH 08/12] x86, mce: check the result of ancient_init()

From: Hidetoshi Seto
Date: Fri May 27 2011 - 00:10:33 EST


Because "ancient cpu" like p5 and winchip don't have X86_FEATURE_MCA
(I suppose so), mcheck_cpu_init() on such cpu will return at check
of mce_available() after __mcheck_cpu_ancient_init().

It is hard to know this implicit behavior without knowing cpus well.
So make it clear that we leave mcheck_cpu_init() when the cpu is
initialized in __mcheck_cpu_ancient_init().
