Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL for 4.9 071/293] x86/mce: Don't disable MCA banks when
 offlining a CPU on AMD

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

[ Upstream commit ec33838244c8535b23b8d24b167996fd1318bb68 ]

AMD systems have non-core, shared MCA banks within a die. These banks
are controlled by a master CPU per die. If this CPU is offlined then all
the shared banks are disabled in addition to the CPU's core banks.

Also, Fam17h systems may have SMT enabled. The MCA_CTL register is shared
between SMT thread siblings. If a CPU is offlined then all its sibling's
MCA banks are also disabled.

Extend the existing vendor check to AMD too.
