Looks like data cache ECC errors, meaning the CPU 0 is faulty.
Eventually if it's not replaced there will likely be some uncorrectable
errors and the system will likely crash.

I am facing similar, but different errors.

[root@turyxsrv ~]# mcelog
MCE 0
HARDWARE ERROR. This is *NOT* a software problem!
Please contact your hardware vendor
CPU 1 4 northbridge TSC 89a560bb249
ADDR 1dfa49690
 Northbridge Chipkill ECC error
 Chipkill ECC syndrome = 2021
      bit46 = corrected ecc error
 bus error 'local node response, request didn't time out
     generic read mem transaction
     memory access, level generic'
STATUS 9410c00020080a13 MCGSTATUS 0

Repeats whenever I do any kind of operations...
How severe is ChipKill errors? Should I consider throwing away CPU 1
and get another one.

That sounds to me more like some of the RAM attached to CPU1 is bad..
