Subject: [PATCH 6/6] x86/mce: Add CMCI poll mode

From: Chen Gong <gong.chen@...ux.intel.com>

On Intel systems corrected machine check interrupts (CMCI) may be sent to
multiple logical processors; possibly to all processors on the affected
socket (SDM Volume 3B "15.5.1 CMCI Local APIC Interface").  This means
that a persistent error (such as a stuck bit in ECC memory) may cause
a storm of interrupts that greatly hinders or prevents forward progress
(probably on many processors).

To solve this we keep track of the rate at which each processor sees
CMCI. If we exceed a threshold, we disable CMCI delivery and switch to
polling the machine check banks. If the storm subsides (none of the
affected processors see any more errors for a complete poll interval) we
re-enable CMCI.

Changes (w.r.t. old patch 5/5):
+ New commit message
+ Print messages when storm starts/ends
+ Suppress messages from cmci_discover()
+ Some spelling fixes
+ Increased storm threshold from 5 to 15 (so we are
  have a few more samples for pattern detection to
  identify the source of the storm).
