Subject: [PATCH 2/6] x86/RAS/AMD: Reduce number of IPIs when prepping error injection

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

We currently use wrmsr_on_cpu() 4 times when prepping for an error
injection. This will generate 4 IPIs for each MSR write. We can reduce
the number of IPIs to 1 by grouping the MSR writes and executing them
serially on the appropriate CPU.
