x86/mce: Provide boot argument to honour bios-set CMCI threshold
The ACPI spec doesn't provide for a way for the bios to pass down
recommended thresholds to the OS on a _per-bank_ basis. This patch adds
a new boot option, which if passed, tells Linux to use CMCI thresholds
set by the bios.
As fail-safe, we initialize threshold to 1 if some banks have not been
initialized by the bios and warn the user.
