Subject: [PATCH 0/3] x86:mce: Some cleanups and bios-set CMCI thresholds

Hello,
I'm putting together my previous set of patches for MCE.

The first two patches are cleanups, as per previous discussions. The first
patch makes mce sysfs tunables available under global machinecheck sysfs
directory. We no longer remove the existing entries in the per-cpu location.
The second patch consolidates some of the mce boot options into a single
bitfield. The structure name has been changed and is now in mce-internal.h

The third patch adds a new boot option to honour bios-set CMCI thresholds.
This has been rebased on the above patches.

This patch series applies on top of -tip.

Thanks,
Naveen
