When a machine error is graded as PANIC by AMD grading logic, the MCE
handler calls mce_panic(). The notification chain does not come into effect
so the AMD EDAC driver does not decode the errors. In these cases, the
messages displayed to the user are more cryptic and miss information
that might be relevant, like the context in which the error took place.

Fix the above issue including messages on AMD's grading logic for machine
errors graded as PANIC.
