commit fc08a4703a418a398bbb575ac311d36d110ac786 upstream.
The check for an MCE being a memory error in the NFIT mce handler was
bogus. Use the new mce_is_memory_error() helper to detect the error
properly.

Starting a full Address Range Scrub (ARS) on hitting a memory error
machine check exception may not always be desirable. Provide a way
through sysfs to toggle the behavior between just adding the address
(cache line) where the MCE happened to the poison list and doing a full
scrub. The former (selective insertion of the address) is done
unconditionally.

The check for a 'pmem' type SPA in the MCE handler was inverted due to a
merge/rebase error.

When a latent (unknown to 'badblocks') error is encountered, it will
trigger a machine check exception. On a system with machine check
recovery, this will only SIGBUS the process(es) which had the bad page
mapped (as opposed to a kernel panic on platforms without machine
check recovery features). In the former case, we want to trigger a full
rescan of that nvdimm bus. This will allow any additional, new errors
to be captured in the block devices' badblocks lists, and offending
operations on them can be trapped early, avoiding machine checks.
This is done by registering a callback function with the
x86_mce_decoder_chain and calling the new ars_rescan functionality with
the address in the mce notificatiion.
