x86/mce/mcelog: Use xchg() to get and clear the flags
Using xchg() to atomically get and clear the MCE log buffer flags,
streamlines the code and reduces the text size by 20 bytes.
$ size dev-mcelog.o.*
text data bss dec hex filename
3013 360 160 3533 dcd dev-mcelog.o.old
2993 360 160 3513 db9 dev-mcelog.o.new
