When compiling with -Wformat, clang emits the following warnings:

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mce/core.c:295:9: error: format string is not a string literal (potentially insecure) [-Werror,-Wformat-security]
                panic(msg);
                      ^~~

Use a string literal for the format string.

I'm sorry about this. The change in that file was a mistake that I
reverted, but I forgot to change this part.
