x86/mce: Ensure user polling settings are honored when restarting timer
Users can disable MCA polling by setting the "ignore_ce" parameter or by
setting "check_interval=0". This tells the kernel to *not* start the MCE
timer on a CPU.
If the user did not disable CMCI, then storms can occur. When these
happen, the MCE timer will be started with a fixed interval. After the
storm subsides, the timer's next interval is set to check_interval.
This disregards the user's input through "ignore_ce" and
"check_interval". Furthermore, if "check_interval=0", then the new timer
will run faster than expected.
Create a new helper to check these conditions and use it when a CMCI
storm ends.
