This happens in two cases: 1) The CPU logs the error with the MCi_STATUS.EN bit set to zero, and Linux ignores EN=0 entries (as it should). 2) In normal processing the MCE handler ignores banks that do not contain fatal or unrecoverable errors (these would later be found and logged by the CMCI handler). If we panic, these will never be logged, but could be important to diagnose the problem. This patch aims to record and print all known machine check banks if we decide to panic.
