The call is actually a noop because when the MCE is raised the early
notifier is the only call site that correctly calls mce_notify_irq()
because it also sets mce_need_notify. So let's just remove this call,
which allows to unexport mce_notify_irq.

The commit message should be in passive and imperative voice.

"So let's just remove this..." -> "Remove this..."

With this change, there are no users of mce_notify_irq() outside of
mce/core.c. So you could go further and make the function static to
core.c.

In other words, you could squash the second patch into this one.

Thanks,
Yazen

Thanks, I've incorporated those in V2 that I sent.
