Subject: [PATCH v4 21/22] x86/mce: Handle AMD threshold interrupt storms

From: Smita Koralahalli <Smita.KoralahalliChannabasappa@....com>

Extend the logic of handling CMCI storms to AMD threshold interrupts.

Rely on the similar approach as of Intel's CMCI to mitigate storms per
CPU and per bank. But, unlike CMCI, do not set thresholds and reduce
interrupt rate on a storm. Rather, disable the interrupt on the
corresponding CPU and bank. Re-enable back the interrupts if enough
consecutive polls of the bank show no corrected errors (30, as
programmed by Intel).

Turning off the threshold interrupts would be a better solution on AMD
systems as other error severities will still be handled even if the
threshold interrupts are disabled.

[Tony: Small tweak because mce_handle_storm() isn't a pointer now]
[Yazen: Rebase and simplify]

    v3->v4:
    * Simplify based on new patches in this set.
    
    v2->v3:
    * Add tag from Qiuxu.
    
    v1->v2:
    * New in v2, but based on older patch.
    * Rebased on current set and simplified.
    * Kept old tags.
