[PATCH] x86_64: Use the extended RIP MSR for machine check reporting if available.

They are rumoured to be much more reliable than the RIP in the stack frame on
P4s.

This is a borderline case because the code is very simple.  Please note there
are no plans to add support for all the MCE register MSRs.
