AMD thresholding fixes for 3.6

Hi Ingo,

those didn't make it in time for the merge window so I'm sending them now so at they can spend their quality time in linux-next.

Please pull, thanks.

AMD thresholding fixes for 3.6

Those are a bunch of patches which give the MCE thresholding code a hard look and a scrubbing to remove a couple of annoyances like sysfs warnings when running CPU off-/online tests and the threshold_bank4 node under /sys/devices/system/machinecheck/ is a symlink.

It also gives proper names to the thresholding banks instead of simply enumerating them, like this:

     /sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheck0/
     |-- bank0
     |-- bank1
     |-- bank2
     |-- bank3
     |-- bank4
     |-- bank5
     |-- bank6
     |-- check_interval
     |-- cmci_disabled
     |-- combined_unit
     |   |-- combined_unit
     |       |-- error_count
     |       |-- threshold_limit
     |-- dont_log_ce
     |-- execution_unit
     |   |-- execution_unit
     |       |-- error_count
     |       |-- threshold_limit
     |-- ignore_ce
     |-- insn_fetch
     |   |-- insn_fetch
     |       |-- error_count
     |       |-- threshold_limit
     |-- load_store
     |   |-- load_store
     |       |-- error_count
     |       |-- threshold_limit
     |-- monarch_timeout
     |-- northbridge
     |   |-- dram
     |   |   |-- error_count
     |   |   |-- interrupt_enable
     |   |   |-- threshold_limit
     |   |-- ht_links
     |   |   |-- error_count
     |   |   |-- interrupt_enable
     |   |   |-- threshold_limit
     |   |-- l3_cache
     |       |-- error_count
     |       |-- interrupt_enable
     |       |-- threshold_limit
    ...

It is tested on all our families >= K8.
