[PATCH] x86-64: Make lockless machine check record passing a bit more robust.

One machine is constantly throwing NMI watchdog timeouts in mce_log

This was one attempt to fix it.

(AK: this doesn't actually fix the bug I'm seeing unfortunately, probably
drop.  I don't like it that the reader can spin forever now waiting
for a writer)
