Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] x86/MCE/AMD: Get address from already initialized block

From: Yazen Ghannam <yazen.ghannam@....com>

The block address is saved after the block is initialized when
threshold_init_device() is called.

Use the saved block address, if available, rather than trying to
rediscover it.

This will avoid a call trace, when resuming from suspend, due to the
rdmsr_safe_on_cpu() call in get_block_address(). The rdmsr_safe_on_cpu()
call issues an IPI but we're running with interrupts disabled.
This triggers:

    WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 11523 at kernel/smp.c:291
    smp_call_function_single+0xdc/0xe0

* Give more detail on call trace issue.
