x86, mce: Support memory error recovery for both UCNA and Deferred error in machine_check_poll
Uncorrected no action required (UCNA) - is a uncorrected recoverable
machine check error that is not signaled via a machine check exception
and, instead, is reported to system software as a corrected machine
check error. UCNA errors indicate that some data in the system is
corrupted, but the data has not been consumed and the processor state
is valid and you may continue execution on this processor. UCNA errors
require no action from system software to continue execution. Note that
UCNA errors are supported by the processor only when IA32_MCG_CAP[24]
(MCG_SER_P) is set.

Deferred errors are errors that cannot be corrected by hardware, but
do not cause an immediate interruption in program flow, loss of data
integrity, or corruption of processor state. These errors indicate
that data has been corrupted but not consumed. Hardware writes information
to the status and address registers in the corresponding bank that
identifies the source of the error if deferred errors are enabled for
logging. Deferred errors are not reported via machine check exceptions;
they can be seen by polling the MCi_STATUS registers.
-- AMD64 APM Volume 2
Above two items, both UCNA and Deferred errors belong to detected
errors, but they can't be corrected by hardware, and this is very
similar to Software Recoverable Action Optional (SRAO) errors.
Therefore, we can take some actions that have been used for handling
SRAO errors to handle UCNA and Deferred errors.
