Subject: [PATCH 0/9] x86, AMD, MCE: Thresholding cleanups

From: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@....com>

Ok,

so those are a bunch of patches which give the MCE thresholding code a
hard look and a scrubbing to remove a couple of annoyances like sysfs
warnings when running CPU off-/online tests and the threshold_bank4 node
under /sys/devices/system/machinecheck/ is a symlink.

It also gives proper names to the thresholding banks instead of simply
enumerating them, see patch 8/9 for details.

It is tested on all our families >= K8 so if there are no objections,
I'd like to send it upwards next week and maybe even hit the upcoming
merge window, we'll see.

Thanks.
