The condensed patch description in the subject line should start with a
uppercase letter and should be written in imperative tone:

"x86/MCE/AMD: Add a helper function... "

This is all fine and dandy but it needs your SOB too when you send the
patch.

This addition looks useless when it doesn't have any users.

Also, I'm pretty sceptical this even makes sense to have it exported -
I'm guessing this is for mce_amd.c but I can't say without seeing it in
use.

The same remarks hold true for your patch 3.

Thx.
