Subject: [PATCH v5] x86/mce: retrieve poison range from hardware

With Commit 7917f9cdb503 ("acpi/nfit: rely on mce->misc to determine
poison granularity") that changed nfit_handle_mce() callback to report
badrange according to 1ULL << MCI_MISC_ADDR_LSB(mce->misc), it's been
discovered that the mce->misc LSB field is 0x1000 bytes, hence injecting
2 back-to-back poisons and the driver ends up logging 8 badblocks,
because 0x1000 bytes is 8 512-byte.

Dan Williams noticed that apei_mce_report_mem_error() hardcode
the LSB field to PAGE_SHIFT instead of consulting the input
struct cper_sec_mem_err record.  So change to rely on hardware whenever
support is available.
