x86/mce: Fix CMCI preemption bugs
The following commit:
27f6c573e0f7 ("x86, CMCI: Add proper detection of end of CMCI storms")
Added two preemption bugs:
- machine_check_poll() does a get_cpu_var() without a matching
put_cpu_var(), which causes preemption imbalance and crashes upon
bootup.
- it does percpu ops without disabling preemption. Preemption is not
disabled due to the mistaken use of a raw spinlock.
To fix these bugs fix the imbalance and change
cmci_discover_lock to a regular spinlock.
