The MCE initialization code explicitly says it doesn't handle asymmetric configurations where different CPUs support different numbers of MCE banks, and it prints a big warning in that case. Therefore, printing the "mce: CPU supports <x> MCE banks" message into the kernel log for every CPU is pure redundancy that clutters the log significantly for systems with lots of CPUs.
