x86: mce: Use safer ways to access MCE registers

Use rdmsrl_safe() when accessing MCE registers. While in
theory we always 'know' which ones are safe to access from
the capability bits, there's a lot of hardware variations
and reality might differ from theory, as it did in this case:

[    0.011998] ESI: 00000000 EDI: 8c000000 EBP: 00000405 ESP: c17d5eac

So WARN_ONCE() instead of crashing the box.

( also fix a number of stylistic inconsistencies in the code. )

Note, we might still crash in wrmsrl() if we get that far, but
we shouldnt if the registers are truly inaccessible.
