x86/mce: Enable additional error logging on certain Intel CPUs
The Xeon versions of Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge and Haswell support an optional additional error logging mode which is enabled by an MSR. Previously, this mode was enabled from the mcelog(8) tool via /dev/cpu, but userspace should not be poking at MSRs. So move the enabling into the kernel.
