+What: CONFIG_X86_OLD_MCE
+When: 2.6.32
+Why: Remove the old legacy 32bit machine check code. This has been
+ superseded by the newer machine check code from the 64bit port,
+ but the old version has been kept around for easier testing. Note this
+ doesn't impact the old P5 and WinChip machine check handlers.
