    For various reasons non fatal Machine Checks can happen on Athlons (e.g.
    we have reports that laptops like to trigger them on suspend/resume)
    
    They are not necessarily fatal and often only minor hardware glitches.
    
    But what's annoying is that they're KERN_EMERG and pollute your console and
    scare the user into writing confused kernel bug reports.
    
    This patch just replaces the KERN_EMERGs with KERN_INFO for now.  Longer
    term I think it would be better to log this stuff into a separate log.
