Subject: [PATCH v3 1/6] x86/mce/inject: Check if a bank is unpopulated before error injection

The MCA_IPID register uniquely identifies a bank's type on Scalable MCA
(SMCA) systems. When an MCA bank is not populated, the MCA_IPID register
will read as zero and writes to it will be ignored.

On a hw-type error injection (injection which writes the actual MCA
registers in an attempt to cause a real MCE) check the value of this
register before trying to inject the error.

Do not impose any limitations on a sw injection and allow the user to
test out all the decoding paths without relying on the available hardware,
as its purpose is to just test the code.

 [ bp: Heavily massage. ]

v2:
	simulate -> inject.
	Corrected according to kernel commenting style.
	boot_cpu_has() -> cpu_feature_enabled().
	Error simulation not possible: Bank %llu unpopulated ->
	Cannot set IPID - bank %llu unpopulated.
	Used user provided IPID value on sw injection without checking
	underlying hardware and defined it under inj_ipid_set().
v3:
	Restructure and simplify the code. For !sw injection fail the
	injection if IPID is zero and do otherwise.
