x86/MCE/AMD: Fix thinko about thresholding_en So adding thresholding_en et al was a good thing for removing the per-CPU thresholding callback, i.e., threshold_cpu_callback. But, in order for it to work and especially that test in mce_threshold_create_device() so that all thresholding banks get properly created and not the whole thing to fail with a NULL ptr dereference at mce_cpu_pre_down() when we offline the CPUs, we need to set the thresholding_en flag *before* we start creating the devices. Yap, it failed because thresholding_en wasn't set at the time we were creating the banks so we didn't create any and then at mce_cpu_pre_down() -> mce_threshold_remove_device() time, we would blow up. And the fix is actually easy: we have thresholding on the system when we have managed to set the thresholding vector to amd_threshold_interrupt() earlier in mce_amd_feature_init() while we were picking apart the thresholding banks and what is set and what not. So let's do that.
