Andi Kleen 52d168e28b x86, mce: switch machine check polling to per CPU timer 
Impact: Higher priority bug fix

The machine check poller runs a single timer and then broadcasted an
IPI to all CPUs to check them. This leads to unnecessary
synchronization between CPUs. The original CPU running the timer has
to wait potentially a long time for all other CPUs answering. This is
also real time unfriendly and in general inefficient.

This was especially a problem on systems with a lot of events where
the poller run with a higher frequency after processing some events.
There could be more and more CPU time wasted with this, to
the point of significantly slowing down machines.

The machine check polling is actually fully independent per CPU, so
there's no reason to not just do this all with per CPU timers.  This
patch implements that.

Also switch the poller also to use standard timers instead of work
queues. It was using work queues to be able to execute a user program
on a event, but mce_notify_user() handles this case now with a
separate callback. So instead always run the poll code in in a
standard per CPU timer, which means that in the common case of not
having to execute a trigger there will be less overhead.

This allows to clean up the initialization significantly, because
standard timers are already up when machine checks get init'ed.  No
multiple initialization functions.

Thanks to Thomas Gleixner for some help.

v2: Use del_timer_sync() on cpu shutdown and don't try to handle
migrated timers.
v3: Add WARN_ON for timer running on unexpected CPU
