Public bug reported:

Dell PowerEdge 720 on ubuntu 14.04 shows MCE errors on dmesg. Dell
support instructed to run DSET and BIOS hardware diagnostics. Neither of
the tools showed any errors. Dell support said that if there was a
hardware error it would have been shown on Dell logs and the probable
reason for the dmesg log is a bug in ubuntu kernel MCE reporting.

So, is it that following dmesg is because of a kernel bug in ubuntu
14.04 server?
