Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB
of memory. A quick search on the internet, and you see that
even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.
This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in
carrying this any further into the future.
One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

Found one x2apic pre-enabled system, x2apic_mode suddenly get
corrupted after register some cpus, when compiled
CONFIG_NR_CPUS=255 instead of 512.
It turns out that generic_processor_info() ==> phyid_set(apicid,
phys_cpu_present_map) causes the problem.
phys_cpu_present_map is sized by MAX_APICS bits, and pre-enabled
system some cpus have an apic id > 255.
The variable after phys_cpu_present_map may get corrupted
silently:
ffffffff828e8420 B phys_cpu_present_map
ffffffff828e8440 B apic_verbosity
ffffffff828e8444 B local_apic_timer_c2_ok
ffffffff828e8448 B disable_apic
ffffffff828e844c B x2apic_mode
ffffffff828e8450 B x2apic_disabled
ffffffff828e8454 B num_processors
...
Actually phys_cpu_present_map is referenced via apic id, instead
index. We should use MAX_LOCAL_APIC instead MAX_APICS.
For 64-bit it will be 32768 in all cases. BSS will increase by 4k bytes
on 64-bit:
text data bss dec filename
21696943 4193748 12787712 38678403 vmlinux.before
21696943 4193748 12791808 38682499 vmlinux.after
No change on 32bit.
Finally we can remove MAX_APCIS that was rather confusing.

It would be cleaner to rename all the mpf->mpf_X fields to
mpf->X - that alone would give 4 characters per usage site.
(we already know that it's an 'mpf' entity -
no need to duplicate that in the field too)

intel_mp_floating should be renamed to mpf_intel.

which means MP Floating pointer structure -

Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since:
a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless.
b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints.
